Info
File formats define encoding methods (Codecs) and structures (Containers) to store data in files or stream it using Network-Protocols. This section will collect articles about formats, Codecs and Containers with short descriptions, possible filename extensions, references to the official standards and how each format is used in FRITZ!OS.
