It's more than that, though. We want the files to be readable both inside
and outside of Resolve. AVI files usually are readable outside of Resolve because pretty much every Windows video oriented software on the planet (excepting Resolve) can read VfW codecs installed to the system.
We just need that 'inside' part taken care of. Converting to QuickTime could negate the 'outside' part, though.
Uhm not exactly, MacOS and Windows10 are going to remove tons of codecs support and in the last five years many software cannot read codecs from Os, many libraries are skipped to leave to a software developers the support of old codecs. Try to a new fresh win10 read some old animation, uncompressedyuv, diva and more codecs or install old codecs (new divx not support old), many codecs are only32bit oriented and often are not upgraded to 64bit. Many dv variations of codec are losted.
Today I work often with old shooting for documentary, for medical doc where medical machine use proprietary codecs or old (patents free now) codecs and is a very difficult task to manage all. I had some virtual machine with xp, seven and more with many free and pay converter to move on modern codecs these files.
It’s time and space wasted, but today seems that developers think only to h264/265 and few more
