- Description
- Compressed audio file similar to an .MP3 file, but offers several performance improvements; examples include a higher coding efficiency for both stationary and transient signals, a simpler filterbank, and better handling of frequencies above 16 kHz; maintains quality nearly indistinguishable from the original audio source.
- A DivX-Encoded Movie File, designated with the .divx file extension, is a digital video format that offers a high-quality, highly compressed viewing experience. Developed by DivX, LLC, this format is designed to compress lengthy video segments into smaller sizes without significantly sacrificing visual quality. This enables users to store and distribute high-definition videos more efficiently over limited bandwidth or storage capacities. The DivX codec, which is required to play these files, supports advanced multimedia features such as multiple video streams.
