What is
WMV?
WMV stands for Windows
Media Video -- developed and controlled by Microsoft. WMV is a generic name
of Microsoft's video encoding solutions and doesn't necessarily define the technology
what it uses -- since version 7 (WMV7) Microsoft has used its own flavour of
MPEG-4 video encoding technology.
DivX video format is originally based on hacked
WMV codec.
Windows Media Format 11 adds support for HD video up to 1080P. WMF 11 runs
only on Windows XP and Vista.
Additional information is available on Microsoft
Windows Media page.
What is
WAV?
The format for storing sound in files developed jointly by Microsoft and
IBM. Support for WAV files was
built into Windows 95 making it the de facto standard for sound on PCs. WAV
sound files end with a.wav extension and can be played by nearly all Windows
applications that support sound.
