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. |
