Convert MP4 to VP6

Understanding MP4 and VP6 file formats

MP4, also known as MPEG-4 Part 14, is a digital multimedia container format most commonly used to store video and audio, but it can also be used to store other data such as subtitles and still images. It is widely used for streaming over the internet.

On the other hand, VP6 is a video codec developed by On2 Technologies. It is used for high-quality video compression and is commonly used in Flash Video (.FLV) files for video streaming on sites like YouTube.
