The first of them is really the file format, the one that surrounds everything (audio, video, etc &#8230;), while the second is the format directly related to the video part.<\/p>\n<p>But let&#8217;s look at a description of each concept to make it even clearer:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Container format<\/strong>: A video file usually has a certain container format, such as AVI, MP4 or MKV, for example. As its name suggests, a file in this format contains several elements inside it (generally and at least, video and audio). However, it is possible that it only includes one of them, or for example multiple audio channels (to have several languages \u200b\u200bfrom the same file). Some container formats also allow you to include other elements such as images or integrated subtitles, without the need for external files.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Video codec<\/strong>: It is often confused with the video format, but it is not really the same, since it is related to the content video and not the container format. It is not a mandatory element, since if a codec is not specified, the video is RAW (uncompressed) content, taking up a lot of space (for example, 200MB about 10sec). For that reason, a codec is generally chosen to compress the video. Depending on the choice of the codec, better or worse quality will be achieved, and in turn, larger or smaller size.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Video specification<\/strong>: Each video codec is usually based on a specific video specification (H.262, H.263, H.264 &#8230;), which is nothing more than a set of rules that define how it should behave. This can serve as an orientation to know if one codec is more or less recent than another.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Audio codec<\/strong>: In the same way that happens with video, we have possible audio channels included in the file. They are also usually compressed with a certain codec to save space: MP3, OGG Vorbis, WMA &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Video formats: What you need to know &nbsp; Currently there is a wide variety of video formats available to store multimedia content in a file and play it on our devices.
