DV is a digital video format created by Sony, JVC, Panasonic and other video camera producers. MiniDV has since become a standard for home and semi-professional video production. MiniDV tapes can also be used to record a high-definition format called HDV in cameras designed for this codec, which differs significantly from DV on a technical level as it uses MPEG-2 compression. Most DV players, editors and encoders only support the basic DV format, but not its professional versions. DV Audio/Video data can be stored as raw DV data stream file or the DV data can be packed into AVI container files. The DV meta-information is preserved in both file types.

H.264 is a next-generation video compression format. Apple has official adopted H.264 as the format for QuickTime. It is also one of the formats chosen to be supported by both high definition DVD standards, and is destined to be the future standard format for Blu-ray. Even AVCHD, the consumer format offered by the same people behind Blu-ray and for use in camcorders and Blu-ray recorders, uses H.264 as the main video format. DivX Inc's latest DivX version now also includes H.264 encoding and playback, including support for the MKV container and AAC audio.
