What is a .mov file?
MOV is Apple's QuickTime multimedia container, closely related to and largely compatible with MP4 since both derive from the QuickTime file format. It stores video, audio, timecode, and metadata tracks and is common for content from Apple devices and professional video. It supports high-quality codecs and editing metadata.
How to use this file
Use an example MOV to test QuickTime container parsing, track and timecode handling, and pipelines that transcode or remux between MOV and MP4.
