- Description
- Smacker Video (.smk) is a video file format developed for use in video games, designed to deliver synchronized audio and video with efficient compression on low-end hardware. It was especially popular in the 1990s and early 2000s for cutscenes and in-game full-motion video. The format supports multiple audio tracks and palette-based video compression optimized for CPU playback without dedicated hardware acceleration.
- Audio file ripped from a CD formatted using the CD Digital Audio specification; can be extracted using applications such as iTunes or Logic Pro; used for saving CD audio data to a computer, as well as burning new CDs.
