- The Advanced Authoring Format (AAF) file is a professional multimedia file format used for video editing and post-production. It is designed to facilitate the exchange of media and metadata between different video editing software and systems. AAF files contain multimedia content such as video and audio streams, along with comprehensive metadata that describes the content and the structure of the media project. This includes information on edits, transitions, effects, and more. The format is aimed at improving workflow efficiency and interoperability among various tools and platforms.
- Xvid-encoded video files are digital video files that have been compressed and encoded using the Xvid codec, an open-source video codec designed for compressing video data in order to facilitate faster transmission over computer networks or for more efficient storage on computer disks. Xvid, which is a reverse spelling of "DivX," emerged as a popular format due to its ability to compress video files without significant loss of quality.
