- Description
- The WTV (Windows Recorded TV Show) file format is used by Microsoft's Windows Media Center to store TV recordings. Introduced with Windows 7 as a successor to the earlier DVR-MS format used by Windows XP Media Center Edition, WTV files allow users to record live television broadcasts or schedule recordings directly through their computers equipped with a compatible TV tuner card. These files encapsulate both the video and audio streams, along with metadata such as broadcast information and closed captions.
- CIP is a proprietary image format developed by Cisco Systems for its IP phones. It is used to store images, backgrounds, icons, and logos, and is optimized for use on Cisco IP phones. It is not compatible with other image formats.
