Do you know which/if our web browsers support the MNG video format?

Thanks

Out there it seems MNG is almost unknown See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MNG

Edit: I found a page talking abuot browsers here: http://www.libpng.org/pub/mng/mngapbr.html
Strange that they talk about old browsers but not newer ones :-/

Also this is the MNG test page: http://www.libmng.com/MNGsuite/

The page link you posted is for APNG support. APNG is a different format from MNG:

I tried the MNG test page with OWB 3.32 and TimberWolf 4.0.1RC3 and the MNG files don't seem to work in either browser.

Edit:
Just tried with Chrome/Firefox on my Ubuntu PC and they don't work there either.

Netsurf for AmiCygnix does support MNG.

NetSurf OS4 native supports MNG too, but as hardly anybody uses MNG, I don't bother building it in - the MNG datatype (which NetSurf will use if installed) is good enough for most purposes.

The datatype is good enough? Then you don't use the same as me
The datatype on OS4depot says :"As a side-effect it also supports MNG (first frame only)"

One frame, not so nice for an animation format

Well, I've yet to see a single-frame MNG in the wild, let alone one that actually uses the animation features. Ergo the datatype is good enough for most situations (as you won't be viewing MNGs anyway).
