Multimedia file types still confuse me. I believe the codecs for the |
| 10 |
packaged audio and video are the important thing when converting formats. |
| 11 |
If the video and audio streams are copied rather than re-encoded, the |
| 12 |
quality should be maintained regardless of the particular packaging. |

What does "file yourfile.m4v" say? For example: |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
#file myfile.mpg |
| 17 |
myfile.mpg: RIFF (little-endian) data, AVI, 512 x 384, 25.00 fps, video: |
| 18 |
Microsoft MPEG-4 v3, audio: MPEG-1 Layer 3 (mono, 24000 Hz) |

Totem displays the sample file I used above, so I must have the right |
| 21 |
codecs installed, but I can't tell you which package they came from. |

What does totem say when you play your m4v file? |
