Format for best resolution and audio for video downloads? - cassie - 09-24-2009
At abcyoutube dot com, I see:
Download as MP4
Download as MP3
Download as 3GP
Download as FLV
What format should I use to get the best resolution and audio for video downloads?
I would be using some with iMovie and iDVD...and how does AVI play a part?
Thanks,
cassie

I use MP4. I guess I'd use 3gp for a phone.

AVI is a "wrapper" or "container" that could have any number of video codecs inside, like XviD, DivX, etc.

good point Decay. Most don't know that.
A paperback, hardback, 3 ring binder, and a bunch of college ruled papers stapled together can have EXACTLY the same contents.
