Apple Lossless (also Apple Lossless Audio Codec), an audio codec developed by Apple Inc. for lossless data compression of digital music
The Apple Intermediate Codec abbreviated AIC (by users, Apple Engineers don't use the abbreviation) is designed by Apple Inc. to be an intermediate format in an HDV and AVCHD workflow.
David Hammerton and Cody Brocious have analyzed and decoded this codec without any documents on the format.
The press release in the GoPro acquisition noted that CineForm's codec has been used in several major movies including Slumdog Millionaire.
A tool to help in the troubleshooting of "codec hell" issues usually referenced is the GSpot Codec Information Appliance, which can be useful in determining what codec is used to render video files in AVI and other containers.
In March 2008, DivX, Inc. announced that Moscow State University ranked MainConcept's H.264 codec first for the second straight year in its annual H.264-codec comparison.
Video Codec Comparison carried out through Moscow State University Compression Project, Elecard AVC Encoder demonstrated the fastest encoding speed and high picture quality, ranking 5th (and last among the tested H.264 encoders) in the overall codecs comparison results.
The codec (which was used in the film Slumdog Millionaire) according to the press release "makes HD and 3D editing faster and more convenient without sacrificing image quality".
The release concerns only H.264 video and not AAC audio formats, since "the standards bodies have aligned on Opus and G.711 as the common audio codecs for WebRTC".
Lafesta was the first station that adopted the AACV2+ codec, that produce high fidelity, while still minimizing bandwidth consumption.
Miracast allows a portable device or computer to send, securely, up to 1080p HD video and 5.1 surround sound (AAC and AC3 are optional codecs, mandated codec is linear pulse-code modulation — 16 bits 48 kHz 2 channels).
OpenMAX DL is the interface between physical hardware, such as digital signal processor (DSP) chips and CPUs, and software, like video codecs and 3D engines.
When it was introduced by Steve Jobs at Worldwide Developers Conference 2003, it was said that the codec was developed at the request of animation company Pixar.
It occurs in transform-based audio compression algorithms – typically based on the modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT) – such as MP3, MPEG-4 AAC, and Vorbis, and is due to quantization noise being spread over the entire transform-window of the codec.

Avoiding pre-echo is a substantial design difficulty in transform domain lossy audio codecs such as MP3, MPEG-4 AAC, and Vorbis.
In practice, it allows Java applications on Mac OS, Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows to support the capture, editing, playback, and export of many different media formats and codecs.
REDCODE, a video codec used in one model of digital video camera
The RemoteFX Codec does not require any special hardware, and uses the CPU for encoding, with optional hardware-acceleration by either a GPU or ASIC.
Apple Video codec, character code RPZA, introduced in early versions of QuickTime
Le Cinéma, Art Subversif (Buchet—Chastel)— Éloge du Cinéma Expérimental, Dominique Noguez (Beaubourg) — Le Masochisme au Cinéma, Jean Streff (Veyrier) — Le Sexe à l'Ecran, Gérard Lenne (Veyrier) — Dracula, les Vampires au Cinéma, Barrie Pattisson (Minoustch) — Histoire authentique, anecdotique, folklorique et critique du Cinéma Belge depuis ses plus lointaines origines, Francis Bolen (Mémo et Codec)
Also, if one has a codec pack such as the K-Lite Codec Pack installed, then the user can play a wider variety of formats like FLAC and M4A, though not much, converting audio to M4A not only has the added benefit of better quality, it also takes up less space and thus, loads faster.
Recording via built-in microphone or FM radio in ADPCM WAV (32 kbit/s mono or 64k bps stereo; using FFmpeg codec named adpcm ima wav), ACT (8 kbit/s) or VOR (32 or 8 kbit/s) formats, and ability to play back these files locally or via Windows Media Player when connected as an MSC device.
It is a lossy speech compression codec designed specifically towards communication channels suffering from packet loss.
For the video codec project of the same name, see Theora.
Turbolinux is notable for including licensed copies of CyberLink PowerDVD and Windows Media binary codecs.
In November 2003, On2 announced that VP6 had been chosen as a codec for China's Enhanced Versatile Disc (EVD), a competitor format to DVD.
Using a similar style to the defunct site, VReel has received a licence from DivX, Inc. to use their codec, and has signed an agreement with Edgecast to host the Web site globally.
Spring 2004
POTS line digital codec units are obtained, bringing a further improvement in fidelity and reliability over the aging and ailing frequency extender
In contrast with the DivX codec, which is proprietary software developed by DivX, Inc., Xvid is free software distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License.
