The LEADTOOLS Multimedia toolkit writes the following file formats:
- AVI (compressed with any available compressors on the user's machine)
- Mpeg1 Layer-3 Audio (MP3)
-
MPEG1 System (video and audio) This requires the use of an MPEG1-compatible audio and video compressor. The LEAD MPEG Audio Encoder and LEAD MPEG2 Video Encoder can be used. (The LEAD MPEG2 Video Encoder can generate MPEG1-compatible video compression.)
-
MPEG2 Program (video and audio) This requires the use of an MPEG2-compatible audio and video compressor. The LEAD MPEG Audio Encoder, LEAD AC3 Audio Encoder, LEAD MPEG2 Video Encoder, LEAD MPEG4 Video Encoder, and LEAD H264 Video Encoder can be used.
- MPEG2 Transport (video and audio) This requires the use of an MPEG2-compatible audio and video compressor. The LEAD MPEG Audio Encoder, LEAD AC3 Audio Encoder, LEAD MPEG2 Video Encoder, LEAD MPEG4 Video Encoder, and LEAD H264 Video Encoder can be used.
- OGG (compressed using any compressor available on the user's machine)
- Flash version 6 ( FLV )
