Description | 🔵 .mpeg (Moving Picture Experts Group) The .mpeg file format is a popular video file format standardized by the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG). It's used for audio and video compression and transmission. MPEG files use different compression for audio and video tracks; video is compressed using MPEG- or MPEG- compression (depending on the quality and purpose), and audio is typically compressed using MP. MPEG files are commonly used for creating movies that are distributed over the internet due to their high compression and decent quality. |
Technical details | 🔵 The `.mpeg` format encompasses various digital video and audio coding formats set by the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG). These standards are essential for encoding digital audio and video. MPEG-1: Aimed at coding progressive video at about 1.5 Mbps, MPEG-1 was used for Video CDs, digital TV, and audio broadcasting. It supports resolutions up to 352x240 (NTSC) or 352x288 (PAL/SECAM) and includes MP3 audio and MPEG-1 Part 2 video components. MPEG-2: Developed for interlaced images, digital TV, and DVDs, MPEG-2 enhances coding efficiency over MPEG-1. It supports HDTV and includes advanced audio (AAC) and video formats. MPEG-4: Designed for multimedia streaming, telephony, and broadcast TV, MPEG-4 caters to a range from internet streaming to high-definition TV. It's standard for Blu-ray discs, including MPEG-4 Part 2 and AVC (H.264). General Aspects: - MPEG uses lossy compression to minimize data for audio-visual content. - MPEG files have various extensions like .mpg, .mpeg for video, and .mp3, .aac for audio. - It employs interframe compression, storing differences between frames to reduce file size. - MPEG files vary in bitrate, affecting quality and size. - These files are widely compatible and suitable for internet streaming due to their compression efficiency. MPEG standards are pivotal in digital video and audio's growth in broadcasting and online streaming, balancing compression efficiency and quality. |

Description | 🔵 A format of audio stream coding deployed by Microsoft in 1999, it has been serving as a foundation for Windows Media. Its purpose is to store and distribute audio content. Firstly, it was considered a real alternative for MP3, but then, when ACC appeared, WMA partially lost its significance. It differs fundamentally from MP3 by one realization and can be installed on an equal basis with other system codecs of Windows 9x. A good compression quality characterizes WMA, and therefore it has been adapted later for many audio players, mobile devices, and Playstations. However, due to excessive closure, files in this format cannot be played back on other platforms with satisfactory quality. The new version allows for multi-channel coding of large audio files and coding of voice data. In addition to that, the delay in coding has been significantly diminished thanks to the technology of reduced time dilation. |
Technical details | 🔵 The name of WMA is being used simultaneously for the file format and the codec. There are some types of the format:
According to Microsoft programmers, an audio file of 64 Kbit/s bitrate has a similar sound clarity as the tracks from the original CD. However, some of advanced users do not share such views. Most often, WMA files are generated in Advanced Systems Format which contains both audio and video content. One of the failures is the impossibility to support bitrate of more than 160Kbit/s. |
