- Description
- The H.264 Encoded Video File, commonly referred to by its file extension .h264, is a digital video file format that utilizes the H.264 codec. This codec, also known as MPEG-4 Part 10 or AVC (Advanced Video Coding), is widely recognized for its high compression efficiency, providing high-quality video at relatively low bitrates. This makes it ideal for use in various applications, from streaming video services and Blu-ray discs to digital television broadcasts and video conferencing.
- The FPX (FlashPix Bitmap Image File) format is a type of image file designed to support high-resolution photographs and images. Developed in the mid-1990s by a consortium including Kodak, Microsoft, Hewlett-Packard, and Live Picture Inc., the FPX format is based on the Image Content Architecture (ICA), which allows it to store multiple resolutions of an image within a single file. This makes it especially useful for efficiently viewing and editing images without requiring the full image file.
