MP4 only supports Digital 3D at the video format level. [44] Some common multimedia file formats are not completely distinct container formats. Some are containers for specific audio and video coding formats, such as WebM, a subset of Matroska.
WebM is an audiovisual media file format. [5] It is primarily intended to offer a royalty-free alternative to use in the HTML video and the HTML audio elements. It has a sister project, WebP , for images.
The quality the codec can achieve is heavily based on the compression format the codec uses. A codec is not a format, and there may be multiple codecs that implement the same compression specification – for example, MPEG-1 codecs typically do not achieve quality/size ratio comparable to codecs that implement the more modern H.264 specification.
The only filename extension for MPEG-4 Part 14 files as defined by the specification is .mp4. MPEG-4 Part 14 (formally ISO / IEC 14496-14:2003 ) is a standard specified as a part of MPEG-4 . Portable media players are sometimes advertised as " MP4 players ", although some are simply MP3 players that also play AMV video or some other video ...
As such, the user normally does not have a H.264 file, but instead has a video file, which is an MP4 container of H.264-encoded video, normally alongside AAC-encoded audio. Multimedia container formats can contain one of several different video coding formats; for example, the MP4 container format can contain video coding formats such as MPEG-2 ...
The MP4 file format known as "version 1" was published in 2001 as ISO/IEC 14496-1:2001, as revision of the MPEG-4 Part 1: Systems. [14] [15] [16] In 2003, the first version of the MP4 file format was revised and replaced by MPEG-4 Part 14: MP4 file format (ISO/IEC 14496-14:2003), commonly known as MPEG-4 file format "version 2".

And yes, they announced that they will support H.264 and VP8 (which are delivered in .mp4 and .webm) and Microsoft didn't say anything about banning WebM to avoid patent conflict (lol you probably don't know that Microsoft is part of the MPEG-LA patent pool, they won't sue themselves)2.89.119.157 18:39, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
