Other file formats

Non-video file formats supported by the home theater (see above).

— MP3/WMA. One of the most common music file formats. They are two separate types of digital audio, but in many practical aspects they are so similar that it is technically easy to provide simultaneous support for MP3 and WMA, and in most modern home theaters one is not separated from the other. They belong to formats that provide the so-called lossy compression (lossy) — the file size is small, but this is achieved by deteriorating the accuracy of sound transmission in certain sections of the track. However, these sections are chosen in such a way that the deterioration is almost inaudible, and at a high bitrate, the sound in MP3 or WMA is almost indistinguishable from FLAC (see below) and other lossless formats.

— Audio CD. An ordinary, familiar to everyone and ubiquitous music disc, usually containing about 15-20 tracks (up to 80 minutes of sound). Universal, supported by absolutely all devices capable of reading optical media, regardless of the year of their release. At the same time, the sound quality of Audio CD is so high that it is sufficient even for Hi-Fi level equipment. Due to this, and also due to the low cost, such media are still widely used, despite the emergence of more advanced options.

— Audio DVD. A format similar to Audio CD, but designed for DVD discs and designed specifically for the storage and high-quality reproduction of audio information. In this format,...you can record sound with a different number of channels, up to 5.1. It has not received wide popularity, although it enjoys a certain popularity — in particular, due to the higher sound quality than on Audio CDs (which are quite good in themselves).

— Super Audio CD. An improved version of a regular Audio CD that exceeds its sampling rate by 64 times, thereby providing a higher sound quality. SACD discs are not compatible with conventional CD drives (at best, it is possible to play the so-called "hybrid disc" as a normal Audio CD); therefore, to work with media of this type, it is worth choosing devices in which support for Super Audio CD is directly claimed.

— JPEG. The most common modern graphic file format is, in particular, the standard in digital photography. Therefore, if you intend to use your home theater to view photos, you should choose a model with JPEG support.

These are the most common additional formats. In addition to them, modern home theaters can support other types of files, for example:

— AAC. An audio format similar to MP3 and WMA, but primarily used by Apple technology.

— GIF. Graphic format primarily used for creating animated images.

— FLAC. An audio standard that provides lossless compression, one of the most popular lossless audio formats today. Provides higher fidelity sound transmission than MP3 and the like, but the file size is many times larger.

— A.P.E. Another lossless compression standard. The size of APE files is smaller than FLAC, but this requires quite a lot of processing power from the playback device. Therefore, support for this format is somewhat less common.

— txt. Text storage format. Working with such files can be useful, for example, to view the text of a song being played from a disc on a TV screen.

— SRT, SUB, ASS. Popular external subtitle formats. They differ in functional features: for example, SRT allows you to work only with unformatted text, while ASS supports various fonts, colours, effects, etc. However, the essence of such files is the same — the addition of video files with subtitles.
