In describing the technologies and applications dedicated to video viewing, a very specific terminology is used that is unknown to most people.<\/p>\n

\"video<\/a><\/p>\n

Following this document, we briefly describe the most important terms, as follows:<\/p>\n

By encoder we mean a program encoding and decoding a specific analog form, for example a video (an example of a encoder is Sorenson Spark),
\nThe term form means the set of rules and conventions used to encode digital information, such as video (an example of a form is Mpeg-4)
\nBy playback program, we mean the specific application used to access a service, such as watching a video (an example of a playback program is Flashplayer).
\nThe term plugin refers to an autonomous program that interacts with another program, the main program, to extend the functions of the main program itself.<\/p>\n
