What is the MPEG format
MPEG is a name associated with video compression standards that were used for years in discs, broadcasts and digital files. Depending on the context, it may appear in older media, software exports or videos coming from legacy systems.
Although it is still a recognizable format, converting MPEG to MP4 is often useful to simplify playback in modern environments. This improves compatibility with current devices, browsers and platforms where MP4 is usually the most practical choice.
