What are your favorite image/video formats?

HDF5 was designed for multidimensional numeric arrays, which are particularly ill-suited to putting in a classic relational DB.
It’s a scientific data format, not an image format and it sounds like you’re not the intended audience.

I've been in the remote sensing game almost 25 years. And a good amount of that at the federal government. I've sat at the table and shared beers and dinner with the chief scientists behind the modis and gedi mission. There isn't a geospatial data type or format I haven't encountered, and half of them I've buried.
So please, spare this old hand any lectures.
The fact is geospatial has been able to explode because we finally got away from these kinds of anachronistic approaches to data. It's litterally never been a better time to be a geospatial data scientist. Praise be that the age of h5s and local processing is over.

What's the compatibility like? If someone visits your site using IE 11 does it work? How about Firefox 4.0, or Safari 6.1?
The place I used to work had those compatibility requirements. But they were also still mandating the use of IE 11 for all their corporate software. If you're designing and developing for IE 11, you often get Firefox 4.0 and Safari 6.1 compatibility for free.
Still, it's nothing like when I was in uni we needed to design websites with IE 6 compatibility, that will make you question your career choice.

I love SVGs. Vector images are interesting and seeing an image stored in readable text and still being so small is really cool to me. It’s also fun to play around with since you can plug html into it and vice versa.

TIFF 6 and MKV/FFV1v3.
Both great for digital preservation. -

I miss Flash for vector reasons, both for animations and games. My internet is still slow enough to matter, especially with streaming speed/stability issues.
WebGL is a thing but a bit of a mess, especially downloading. Ruffle or using Wick editor are options... but even Newgrounds doesn't highlight this (unless you find it first and go to info page from there). I assume most animators just render their animations now.
Have tinkered with vertex color (untextured) models in Godot, I see workflow possibilities there (also for 2D to a lesser extent) but good luck if it's gotta be me. Some chunk of development is also different from the content it allows.

Opus, then AV1
I guess it's is not video. But video without sound would be missing something.
I also like the capabilities of mkv Container format. Implementing it is not easy though.

Is .png no good?
PNG is good.
