- Description
- The SHN file format, short for Shorten Compressed Audio File, is a type of compressed audio file developed for efficiently archiving high-quality digital audio. Shorten was one of the early lossless compression methods for audio, meaning it allows the exact original audio data to be reconstructed from the compressed data, without any loss in quality.
- It is a Motion JPEG that captures sequence images in a multimedia format — commonly used on digital cameras and webcams. It is a large file size that can be easily edited because of its low compression levels.
