- xWMA is a container format for compressed audio data developed by Microsoft, based on Windows Media Audio (WMA) compression but with a simplified header structure optimized for streaming and playback via the XAudio2 API. It is primarily used in Xbox and Windows game development to store sound effects and music efficiently.
- An AMV file is a video saved in the Actions Media Video file format, which is used by some Chinese portable media players. It contains a compressed, low-resolution (96x96 to 320x240 pixel) video.
