Video Formats
There a numerous formats of video available, and what video format you use is dependent upon the environment that the video will be viewed. Website video, for instance typically uses the .flv, wmv, or mp4 formats, but mobile video formats have been changing the video format landscape. With the arrival of HTML5, which has native video support built in, third party video plugins such as Adobe Flash have been rumored to become obsolete. Apple announced it would not support Adobe Flash on it’s popular Iphone, which created a panic among frequent users of Adobe Flash multi-media. However, Google’s Droid mobile operating system is boldly promoting the support of Flash media, which many believe will keep Adobe Flash alive in the mobile marketplace.
