: I'm not sure I understand your question. Anyway, a codec is a format for audio/video data representation. If you want to differentiated a codec, e.g. H.264, from a container like MOV, then use the term container, format is much too generic. Saying that one type of format is a format and another type of format is not a format is silly. --[[User:DonDiego|DonDiego]] 04:01, 24 October 2007 (EDT) | |||
