I am looking for a way to list the names of all installed video codecs with ObjectiveC on OS X Mountain Lion. There is a property of AVCaptureVideoDataOutput called availableVideoCodecTypes which returns an array containing to items: avc1 and 'jpeg.

My questions are

how can i get the names of the codec, For example H264 instead of avc1?
are there only two video codecs installed on my system?

Thanks in advance
