MP4 is one of the most widely used video formats, known for its excellent balance between video quality and file size. It’s compatible with almost all media players and devices, making it ideal for streaming, sharing, and storing videos. MP4 files can contain video, audio, subtitles, and images in a single container.
GIF is a graphics format that supports both static and animated images. It uses lossless compression, preserving the image quality while keeping file sizes small. GIFs are popular on social media and in web design for creating simple animations or small visual elements. However, they are limited to 256 colors.
