Manufacturer of the majority share of hardware MPEG decoder chipsets
used in media playback devices has released 3 new chipset designs
in the previous 2 years; the SMP8650, 8630 and 8620L, all of which
explicitly support the most common high-definition video formats,
H.264 and the MP4 container, as well as Microsoft's VC-1 codec and
AVI format but do not contain any built in support for Matroska, though
some OEMs do add it to system designs based on these chipsets.

What extensions is matroska using?
- .mkv : Generally video files, as well those containing
audio ( movies ) or video only
- .mka : audio only files, can contain any supported
audio compresion format, such as MP2, MP3, Vorbis, AAC, AC3, DTS,
PCM and soon MPC ( musepack )
- .mks : a so called 'elementary' matroska stream
containing any subtitles stream
Matroska
1. Designed to hold any type of codec. (Audio, Video, Subtitle,
etc)
2. Designed for editability.
3. Purposely flexible design.
4. Well documented portions, others in process.
5. Initial design is to support presentation container features
such as Chapters, Tags, AudioGain, Menus, etc.
Will Matroska be streamable? Yes, but low bitrate streaming like
streaming Vorbis, will always be better in Ogg. This is because
their design is for different purposes. |
