- Description
- The SFD file format (Sofdec Dreamcast Movie) is a proprietary video file format developed by CRI Middleware specifically for use on the Sega Dreamcast gaming console. This format was used to encode and store video data for playback within Dreamcast games, allowing developers to include high-quality pre-rendered video sequences and cutscenes. The SFD format is optimized for the Dreamcast's hardware capabilities, ensuring smooth playback and efficient storage use on the console's limited media capacity.
- 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.
