Lots of people think digital video file formats are terribly complex.

All that confusing alphabet soup seems like Greek.

Who can understand it?

Actually, video file formats are NOT that difficult. Most formats are compatible with multiple players and will work in many situations.

Converting from one format to another is really no more difficult that doing a "save as" with a word document. You pick which format you want and the software does the rest. Any video editing software should be able to convert into multiple formats.

However, to fully understand internet video, it pays to know the most common formats. To answer your questions about digital video file formats, I have produced a free, three-minute video tutorial. The video covers all the most common file formats and gives some pros and cons for each.

If you have questions about digital video file formats, take three minutes and watch this free tutorial. I think it will give you all the information you need but if you want even more detail, I have two much longer videos that explain the subject more fully. You can find them if you click here.

Once you understand how easy video formats really are, you can convert and upload with confidence!
