- Description
- The VID file type, associated with Vidcom 64, is a vintage video format utilized by specific software on Commodore 64, a popular home computer in the 1980s. This format was primarily used for storing and playing back video content on the system, leveraging the Commodore 64's graphical capabilities. Given the technological limitations of the era, VID files typically contain low-resolution, limited-color-palette video clips. The format is largely obsolete today but remains of interest to retro computing enthusiasts and digital archivists.
- A TIFF file is a graphics container that stores raster images. It may contain high-quality graphics that support color depths from 1 to 24-bit and supports both lossy and lossless compression. TIFF files also support multiple layers and pages.
