This article mainly introduces what is the difference between mov and mp4, which can be used for reference by friends who need it. I hope you will learn a lot after reading this article. Next, let the editor take you to learn about it.

The difference between mov and mp4: 1, MOV format is a container of QuickTime, including not only video and audio, but also Java, scripts, Skin, pictures, etc., is a very complex packaging format; 2, MP4 is to extract the audio and video part of the MOV format to standardize, you can also install some simple scripts.

The difference between mov and mp4:

MOV format is a container of QuickTime, including not only video and audio, but also Java, scripts, Skin, pictures, etc., which is a very complex packaging format. (in the past, there were movie-themed websites dedicated to MOV on Apple's website, and games could be encapsulated in MOV.)

MP4 is to standardize the audio and video part of the MOV format, and it can also install some simple scripts, which are far less complex than MOV.

It can be said that MP4 is just a standardized subset of MOV. IE M4V used to be Apple's MP4 format protected by DRM copyright, but then it became chaotic and was not so strictly called M4V.

Apple streamlined its MOV format and submitted it to the ISO standardization scheme, giving birth to the MP4 format. So Apple is compatible with MOV,MP4 and has its own family.

Mp4 does not explain the general iso container that encapsulates mpeg4 series coding. M4V is a container developed by Apple, and it can be understood that the apple version of mp4 and mp4 are very similar, and the file structure is basically the same as mp4. Usually, the suffix can be changed without problems in that M4V supports DRM protection and AC3 audio, while mp4 does not seem to support ac3 audio. M4V on DRM seems to be a little special. Mov is obviously different from the above two.

Generally, mov files are generated by output encoders of professional software that support a lot of professional encodings outside the mpeg4 series, such as RGB YUV PNG/TIFF sequences, DV5P ProRes and other audio, while they support encoding of mov files that are not supported by mp4, such as LPCM/ADPCM ac3 DTS, and mp4. There are also many differences between mov and mp4. Mov is not an iso container. Some standards of mp4 are based on mov containers earlier than mp4 can be understood as apple avi as to why. All three are decoded by quicktime for very simple reasons. Part of the standard of mp4/m4v is based on mov, and they all belong to quicktime files, professional software import window. You can observe that mp4 M4V mov is in the category of quicktime files files, and in large video software, they usually have to transfer quicktime decoding.

Thank you for reading this article carefully. I hope it will be helpful for everyone to share the different contents of mov and mp4. At the same time, I also hope that you will support us, pay attention to the industry information channel, and find out if you encounter problems. Detailed solutions are waiting for you to learn!
