Technical details – format specifics

Comparison with other formats

When choosing a format, consider compatibility, file size, and quality. Here’s a quick comparison:

• : MP4 (H.264) is the most universal compatibility, while WebM can offer better performance in some browsers and supports VP9/AV1 codecs. If you’re unsure, MP4 is usually the safest pick.
• : MP3 is lossy but compact; WAV is lossless but much larger. For most listening needs, MP3 at 320 kbps provides excellent quality with small sizes. Choose WAV only when you need lossless audio for editing or archiving.
• : 1080p is common and offers good quality for most screens. If you need 4K, ensure the source supports it and that your device can handle large files.
