1 Know your video formats

Video formats are the containers that store the video, audio, and metadata of your files. They have different extensions, such as MP4, MOV, AVI, or MKV. Each format has its own advantages and disadvantages, depending on the quality, size, compression, and compatibility of the video. For example, MP4 is a widely supported and versatile format that can handle high-definition and streaming videos, while MOV is a native format for Apple devices and applications, but may not work well on other systems. You should know the pros and cons of each format and choose the one that suits your purpose and audience.

Nowadays MP4 - H264 is the most commonly used and efficient format out there, You just need to be careful with the bit rate and quality. Although i should mention that this format isn't useful when it's on production which means i usually use it as my final outcome.

1. Verifique a compatibilidade do formato de vídeo com o player antes de reproduzir o arquivo. 2. Utilize formatos de vídeo mais suportados e tradicionais, como MP4, AVI, MKV, MOV... 3. Mantenha seus players de vídeo sempre atualizados para garantir suporte aos formatos mais recentes. 4. Considere utilizar um software de convers?o de vídeo para adequar o formato ao player. 5. Evite formatos mais antigos que possam n?o ser suportados pelos players modernos. 6. Verifique se o codec de vídeo e áudio estejam compatíveis com o player em quest?o.

Am wichtigsten finde ich, auf Bildrate und Aufl?sung zu achten. Manchmal werden die Bilddaten auch unterschiedlich interpretiert. Hier sollte man ebenfalls ein Auge darauf werfen. Der Rest wurde schon ausführlich dargestellt ;-)

To avoid compatibility issues between video formats and players, you can follow these strategies: Choose widely supported formats: Stick to popular and widely supported video formats like MP4 (H.264), which is widely compatible with most devices and players. Check compatibility: Before distributing or playing a video, ensure that the target player supports the format you're using. Most media players provide information about supported formats in their documentation. Transcode or convert: If you encounter compatibility issues, consider transcoding or converting the video file into a more widely supported format using software tools like HandBrake or FFmpeg.

2 Use the right codecs and settings

Codecs are the software or hardware that encode and decode the video and audio data in your files. They affect the quality, size, and performance of your video. There are many types of codecs, such as H.264, HEVC, VP9, or AAC, and each one has its own parameters, such as bitrate, resolution, frame rate, or aspect ratio. You should use the codecs and settings that match your video format and your delivery platform. For example, if you want to upload your video to YouTube, you should use the H.264 codec with a high bitrate and resolution, and a standard frame rate and aspect ratio.

3 Test your video on different devices and platforms

Before you publish or share your video, you should test it on different devices, platforms, and browsers to make sure it plays smoothly and correctly. You can use various tools and methods to test your video, such as online converters, emulators, or analytics. You should check for any issues, such as lagging, buffering, distortion, or synchronization. You should also consider the bandwidth, screen size, and orientation of your viewers. You may need to optimize or adapt your video for different scenarios and preferences.

Updating your software and hardware can improve the performance, security, and compatibility of your video. It can also fix any bugs, glitches, or vulnerabilities that may affect your video quality or functionality.
