- Description
- H.264 is a video compression standard that is commonly used for high-definition video. It is the most widely used format for Blu-ray discs, HD DVDs, and many other types of high-definition video. An H.264 file is a video file that has been encoded using this standard. These files are often saved with the .MP4 file extension. H.264 video is also commonly used in AVCHD camcorders and HDTV.
- A JP2 file is a compressed bitmap image created using JPEG 2000 Core Coding. It incorporates a wavelet compression algorithm instead of Digital Cosine Transform (DCT) compression, which is used by standard JPEG images. JP2 files can be stored using lossy and lossless compression.
