- An SWF file is an animation created with Adobe Flash that can be played by Flash Player or with a web browser that has the Flash plugin installed. It may contain text, vector and raster graphics, and interactive content written in ActionScript.
- Xvid-encoded video files are digital video files that have been compressed and encoded using the Xvid codec, an open-source video codec designed for compressing video data in order to facilitate faster transmission over computer networks or for more efficient storage on computer disks. Xvid, which is a reverse spelling of "DivX," emerged as a popular format due to its ability to compress video files without significant loss of quality.
