- Description
- The BLK file type is associated with the Amiga computer system, specifically within the context of the Interchange File Format (IFF), which was widely used on Amiga systems for various types of multimedia data. BLK files typically contain block data, which could be used for storing graphics, animation frames, or map tiles for video games and other graphical applications. The IFF format is a container format, meaning that it can hold various types of data structures, with BLK files being specifically tailored for graphical block data. These files were integral to the development and distribution of content for the Amiga platform, especially during its peak in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
- Based on HEVC (High-Efficiency Video Coding), the HEIF format is an image file container with one or multiple images and is the default image format for Apple Live Photos. It replaced the JPEG format as it's smaller in size and has lossless compression ensuring high-quality photos.
