- Description
- A raw zlib (RFC 1950) compressed stream: a 0x78 header byte (commonly 78 9C), a deflate body and an Adler-32 checksum at the end. Filestar inflates the stream and then converts whatever the decompressed data turns out to be - often an image or a document.
- 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.
