- Description
- A VQF file, standing for TwinVQ (Vector Quantized) Audio File, is a compressed audio format developed by NTT (Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation) in the late 1990s. It was designed to offer higher compression rates compared to the more commonly used MP3 format, aiming to produce smaller file sizes while retaining a similar audio quality.
- Video file encoded with the MPEG-2 codec, which is mainly used for over-the-air, satellite, and cable digital TV signals and DVD video; uses lossy compression for audio and video to significantly reduce the size of the video data; not as efficient as the H.264 format.
