It is commonly used in digital camcorders and cameras for capturing HD footage. AVCHD leverages the MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 video compression codec, which efficiently reduces file sizes while preserving high-quality video resolution, and supports both Dolby AC-3 and linear PCM audio codecs for high-quality sound.
- It contains CD-quality audio file commonly used in gaming consoles and media players. AIFC can be compared to .WAV file that has been compressed to reduce file size. Therefore, it may incorporate ALAW, ULAW, or G722 compression.
