What does delivery format mean?
We get asked this a lot! Video format can represent a few different things however here is a basic guide:
• Resolution – Size of the actual video picture e.g. 1080p is an HD picture size with a dimension of 1920×1080 or 720p is an HD picture size with a dimension of 1280×720.
• Video codec – A codec basically compresses and decompresses data. It interprets the video file and determines how to play it on your screen. Your computer comes with many codecs pre-installed, however there are a lot of different codecs out there, and it can get really confusing. These days, you really only need to concern yourself with a few common ones such as H.264 (suitable for Youtube, Vimeo and other video portals), MPEG-2 (used for DVD), MJPEG (we usually supply HQ animated files in this format) and WMV (Windows Media Video).
• Video container – video format is more than just its file extension. Extensions like AVI are not, in fact, video codecs, they’re containers. Most common containers you are likely to come across are MP4 (videos for web delivery), AVI (common Windows format), FLV (Flash video) and MOV (Apple’s QuickTime container format).
• Frame rate – videos create the illusion of motion by showing still images in rapid succession. The number of images photographed per second is referred to as the frame rate of the video and is measured in frames per second (fps). Frame rate describes both the speed of recording and the speed of playback. A few common frame rates are 24p (cinematic frame rate), 25p (European standard) and 30p (North American standard).
• Interlaced and progressive – There are basically two ways to display video. Progressive scan (used in computer monitors and digital televisions), displays all the horizontal lines of a picture at one time as a single frame. Whereas Interlaced scan, used in standard television formats (NTSC and PAL), displays only half of the horizontal lines at a time (the first field, containing the odd-numbered lines, is displayed, followed by the second field, containing the even-numbered lines).
Anyway we hope this helps and doesn’t confuse the situation! If you have any questions at all then contact us and we will be happy to explain further.
