| {{wikipedia|Comparison of container formats}}
| | #REDIRECT [[:Category:container]] |
| Containers are Files that can contain audio and/or video. The audio and video is encoded (compressed) using [[codecs]], and then stored in a container. Codecs can normally be used in a variety of different containers.
| | [[Category:Container|↳]] |
| | |
| You can usually tell what container format is used for a file by looking at the file's extension. For example, if a file has a .mp4 extension, it is likely to contain [[MPEG-4]] video.

| | |
| | |
| Below are listed the formats you can play with vlc (if I've missed any, feel free to add it :-)
