- Description
- Created by Matthew T. Ashland for Windows OS, APE format is an audio file that stores sound without any data loss. It is less popular due to the paid license restrictions.
- 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.
