A legacy format... that still lives on as the mp4 container.
- dylan604 3y agothat's not entirely accurate. quicktime has been extended after MP4 container was standardized. so, the MP4 container was based on the version of QT at the time. For example, the color atom was added after that to help players with knowing how to interpret SD/HD colors. They've deprecated using the CLASP and other older features as well. So QT isn't just a locked format living along as MP4. Some apps like MediaInfo will report an MOV with prores and pcm audio as MP4 though, so some people still seem confused.
