Audio

Sound is a vibration that travels through a solid, liquid or gas, made up of frequencies within the range of hearing level. There are 3 main types of audio formats: uncompressed, lossless, and lossy. The Uncompressed audio files are not compressed, much like BMP images. Audio can be used to enhance multimedia applications in several ways, for example in delivering lectures.

Video

The video gives a signal to a screen and processes the order in which the screen captures should be shown. Videos usually have components that correspond with the pictures being shown on the screen.
