insight The coarse Media File Formats
Digital media has revolutionized the world of media - digital media is extremely portable, legitimately sent or transferred. Sometimes, though, the many dissimilar file formats can leave one somewhat confused. In this article, we'll go over a few of the most tasteless file formats.
Wave format - *.wav
The Microsoft wave format is a lossless, normally un-compressed audio format. Advantages of the wav format include is cross platform compatibility and ease of editing in discrete programs. The main disadvantage is a wave files large size.
Mp3 format - *.mp3
The Mp3 format is the most widely used audio format on the internet. An Mp3 file has very good capability in relation to its file size. When creating an Mp3 file, you can pick what capability level to save the file as. The Mp3 format is cross-platform, and compatible with nearly all media applications.
Mpeg - varies, often *.mpg
The Mpeg is not a single file format, but rather a "video and audio encoding standard". There are quite a few dissimilar Mpeg standards, Mpeg-1 and Mpeg-4 being the most commonly used for the mean consumer.
Windows Media Video - *.wmv
The Windows Media Video format is a tasteless media format for internet usage. It is legitimately created using Windows Movie Maker (which comes free on any windows computer.) Windows Media Videos can be created using a wide unlikeness of capability settings.
Windows Media Audio - *.wma or *.asf
The Windows Media Audio format is the second most favorite media format, second only to Mp3. It is very similar to Mp3, except that it supports Drm (Digital possession management).
Quicktime Movie - normally *.mov
The Quicktime Media formats all have a serious disadvantage, in that very few programs withhold them. You must have Quicktime player to play them, and only a very few programs can edit them. They are far less flexible than many other formats.
