Convert SSIF to MP4

Understanding SSIF and MP4 file formats

The SSIF (Stereo Scopic Interleaved File) format is primarily used for 3D Blu-ray discs. It contains interleaved video streams that allow for stereoscopic 3D playback. This format is not widely supported outside of Blu-ray players, making it less versatile for general use.

On the other hand, the MP4 (MPEG-4 Part 14) format is a digital multimedia container format most commonly used to store video and audio. It is highly compatible with a wide range of devices and platforms, making it a popular choice for video distribution and playback.
