Internet applications may reference specific codecs within the WAVE
and AVI registries as follows:

* video/vnd.avi; codec=XXX identifies a specific video codec (i.e.,
  XXX) within the AVI Registry.
* audio/vnd.wave; codec=YYY identifies a specific audio codec
  (i.e., YYY) within the WAVE Registry.
 
Appendix A and Appendix B provides an authoritative reference for the 
interpretation of the required "codec" parameter. That is, the current
set of audio codecs that are registered within the WAVE Registry are 
enumerated in Appendix A. Appendix B enumerates the current set of 
video codecs that have been registered to date within the AVI Registry.
