Glossary Of Terms 


  • Video format: Video is the technology of electronically capturing, recording, processing, storing, transmitting, and reconstructing a sequence of still images representing scenes in motion. For Example, Mov, Avi, MJPEG etc. 
  • Streaming: Streaming media are multimedia that are constantly received by, and normally presented to, an end-user while being delivered by a streaming provider. For Example, they are used for audio or video playback. 
  • File Compression: In computer science and information theory, data compression or source coding is the process of encoding information using fewer bits (or other information-bearing units) than an unencoded representation would use, through use of specific encoding schemes. For Example, they are used for space storage;Smaller files mean less space for storage and now files can be compressed up to 1/100th of the original. 
  • Aspect RatiosThe ratio of the width to the height of the image on a television screen. The ratio of two dimensions of something as considered from a specific direction, in particular. For example, 4:3 , 16:9. 
  • Frame Rates: Frame rate, or frame frequency, is the frequency (rate) at which an imaging device produces unique consecutive images called frames. The term applies equally well to computer graphics, video cameras, film cameras, and motion capture systems. For Example, to increase television size so it can fit for a bigger purpose, it helps to reduce blur's, or sense of reality.
