MPEG1 is old enough that the patents should have expired by now.
The H.264 MPEG-LA patent pool is really pretty reasonably priced for any commercial use I can imagine. The only company outside the pool and suing for massive license fees that I am aware of is Google (Motorola).
I'm not sure of the current state of the H.265 pool and license so I make no comment on them.
