Format standards
Format standards
(OP)
Hi.
I was just wondering if anyone knows (or knows where I could find) information on the specifics of media formats.
e.g. .avi or .mov and what specifications the formats have, i.e. headers, footers, etc..
I'm just intrested because i want to start a new programming project and thought media manipulation may be an intresting field, and am just trying to get some background information on formats.
Thankyou very much for your help!
