Online Streaming Media Formats

Some of the most popular files formats that are available
for media files these days can be read online without
having to wait to download a large file. There are numerous
online streaming media formats to choose from on various
different websites. These include online streaming media
formats for audio files and videos that can be viewed
online. All of these formats will be better for certain
types of computers and connections though.

The first type of online streaming media formats is that of
the Windows Media format. Established by Microsoft, this
format is generally capable of being read by Microsoft
Media Player programs. Windows Media Audio is the top
format that is used for audio programs, while Windows Media
Video can be used for streaming video formats.

Apple’s QuickTime format is another of the top online
streaming media formats. Files that can be read on
QuickTime can be easily streamed online. This includes both
video and audio files. An ActiveX control will be needed for
a website or other online service to be able to play the
file for streaming. It does take a bit to load a typical
file under this format though, but there will be no
interruptions in stream under the QuickTime format, and the
data will not be saved onto the hard drive as a standalone
file unless the user requests it to be saved.

The MPEG file format, or Moving Picture Experts Group
format, is one of the most notable online streaming media
formats for video files. There are three different formats
in the MPEG system. MPEG-1 is a standard compression format
for video files, while MPEG-2 can be used for ATSC, ISDB and
digital satellite and cable transmission. MPEG-4 is the best
quality format and it is used to support three dimensional
content and low bit rate levels.

It should be noted that when downloading streaming media in
one of the online streaming media formats in the MPEG system
it will take longer to load a file based on the level of
quality. MPEG-4 formats take longer to download. In
addition, depending on the kilobyte bandwidth the size of
the file will be different. 64Kb files will be smaller and
therefore of less quality than 256Kb files.

Real Media files are also popular among online streaming
media formats. This can be easily read through a Real Media
Player. 64Kb and 256Kb files are available in this format
with the 256Kb format being better in quality.

Of course, MP3 files can be streamed online. This is
especially popular among websites that use higher levels of
information. The bit rate of the file will make a difference
in the quality of the sounds and the speed of the download.
The number of kilobits per second is commonly used in
streaming MP3 formats. For instance, a 56kbps file will be
best for a 56K modem. A 128kbps file will be better for DSL
connections but it will be a larger file to download for
streaming.

The speed of the online connection will make an impact on
the online streaming media formats that are used on the
computer. MPEG-4 files and 128kbps audio files will be
better for faster connections. The main reason for this is
that the files will be of better quality because of the
more complex encoding that is used in these files. Of
course, with the more complex encoding more data will be
needed for the compression of the streaming media.

That is a look at the many online streaming media formats.
These formats can be used for video and audio files. Of
course, some of them will have more data to download and
will have different quality levels, so it is best to
consider the speed of the Internet connection when looking
into the online media format that will be read. With all of
these online streaming media formats, it is good to know
that there are different formats for different types of
computers to use.
