- Description
- The M4V file format is a video container format developed by Apple and is very similar to the MP4 format, with the primary difference being the optional Apple Digital Rights Management (DRM) protection. M4V files are commonly used for TV episodes, movies, and music videos in the iTunes Store. These files can be played on Apple devices such as iPhones, iPads, and iPods, as well as on PCs using iTunes or other compatible media players.
- 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.
