Understanding MPEG and H.264 file formats

MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) is a standard for video compression and transmission. It is widely used for digital television, DVD video, and internet streaming. MPEG files are known for their high quality and efficient compression, making them a popular choice for video distribution.

It is commonly used for streaming, recording, and distribution of high-definition video content. H.264 is known for its ability to deliver excellent video quality while maintaining efficient file sizes.
