What is MPEG?
MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) is a group that developed standards for compressing digital video and audio. Common MPEG formats include MPEG-1, MPEG-2, and MPEG-4, typically using .mpg or .mpeg extensions. These formats offer good video quality but generally result in larger file sizes than modern formats like MP4. MPEG-1 was used for video CDs, while MPEG-2 became the standard for DVDs. MPEG-4 introduced more efficient compression, influencing newer formats. MPEG files are widely supported but are more common in older media.
What is MP4?
MP4 is a widely-used digital multimedia format designed to store video, audio, and other data like subtitles and images. Known for its versatility and efficiency, MP4 delivers high-quality video and audio while maintaining a relatively small file size, making it ideal for streaming, sharing, and storage. It supports advanced compression methods, ensuring compatibility across a wide range of devices and platforms.
