- 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.
- A PGM file is a grayscale image file saved in the portable gray map (PGM) format and encoded with one or two bytes (8 or 16 bits) per pixel. It contains header information and a grid of numbers that represent different shades of gray from black (0) to white (up to 65,536). PGM files are typically stored in ASCII text format, but also have a binary representation.
