Streaming-Streaming is a multimedia that is constantly received by and presented to an end-user while being delivered by a streaming provider.
Video Formats,e.g. mov,avi Video format is the technology of electronically capturing, recording, processing, storing, transmitting and reconstructing a sequence of still images representing scenes in motion.

File Compression-File compression process, stores computer data more efficiently so the information takes up fewer disks or file space and maybe transmitted in less time.

Frame Rates-The frame rate is the number of frames or images that are projected per second. Frames rates are used in synchronizing audio pictures whether film, television or video. The higher frame rate a movie has the smoother objects move in the movie.

Aspect Ratios: 4:3,16:9-A ratio aspect is the ratio between the width and height of a film image. The number denoting width comes first, and the height proportion of the aspect is always written as 1. These days conventional wisdom says that a new home theatre should have 16:9 projector and a 16:9 screen. Almost all of the latest plasma and LCD flat screen TVs are in 16:9 formats, and most video projectors intended for home theater as well. But just because 16:9 has been the standard rate, doesn’t mean you couldn’t consider going for a large screen 4:3.
