3GP — Mobile H.264 Clip
The clip as 3GP — the 3GPP mobile container from the feature-phone era. For testing 3GP demuxing and conversion.
The video category carries one short, documented test clip — a moving marker with a frame counter and running timecode — encoded across the containers and codecs you actually convert between. The same 480×270 clip ships as H.264 in MP4, MOV, and MKV, VP9 in WebM, Motion-JPEG in a classic AVI, and Theora in OGV, so you can transcode one and diff the others or point a player at each container. Every clip is video-only and deliberately tiny (a few seconds, heavily compressed) to stay within budget while remaining a real, decodable file, and a ZIP 'video archive' bundles two clips for testing unpack-then-transcode pipelines. Documented down to resolution, frame rate, and codec — a fixture for testing players, thumbnailers, and video conversion rather than a media showcase.
The clip as 3GP — the 3GPP mobile container from the feature-phone era. For testing 3GP demuxing and conversion.
The clip as DivX-style MPEG-4 ASP in an AVI container — the codec that defined early desktop video. For testing MPEG-4 Part 2 decoding and AVI conversion.
The clip as Motion-JPEG in a classic AVI (RIFF) container — every frame an independent JPEG. For testing legacy AVI readers, MJPEG decoding, and AVI→modern-codec conversion.
The clip as Flash Video (.flv) with H.264 — the legacy web-streaming container. For testing FLV demuxing and conversion to MP4.
The clip as M4V — Apple's MP4 variant used by iTunes. Browser-playable; for testing M4V handling and M4V↔MP4 conversion.
The clip in a Matroska (MKV) container with H.264 video — the flexible open container used for rich multi-track media. For testing MKV demuxing and remux/conversion.
The clip in a QuickTime (MOV) container with H.264 video — Apple's container, common from cameras and editors. For testing MOV parsing and MOV→MP4 conversion.
A short H.264 test clip in an MP4 container (yuv420p, faststart) — the most widely supported web and mobile video format. Video-only and tiny; for testing players, thumbnailers, and MP4→other conversion.
The clip as MPEG-1 in an MPEG program stream (.mpg) — the VCD-era format. For testing legacy MPEG demuxing and conversion to modern codecs.
The clip as Ogg Theora — a fully open, royalty-free format. Browser-playable; for testing Theora decoding and Ogg video conversion.
The clip as an MPEG transport stream (.ts) — the container behind HLS streaming and broadcast. For testing TS demuxing and HLS tooling.
A ZIP bundling the MP4 and WebM test clips with a README — a 'video archive' for testing pipelines that unpack an archive and then transcode its contents. Stored (not re-compressed), since the clips are already compressed.
The same clip as WebM/VP9 — the royalty-free web video format. Video-only; for testing HTML5 <video>, VP9 decoding, and WebM conversion.
The clip as Windows Media Video (WMV2 in an ASF container) — Microsoft's legacy video format. For testing WMV decoding and conversion to open formats.
