#--------------------------- Excerpt: The H.264 standard can be viewed as a "family of standards", the members of which are the profiles described below. A specific decoder decodes at least one, but not necessarily all profiles. The decoder specification describes which of the profiles can be decoded. AVCHD is a high-definition recording format designed by Sony and Panasonic that uses H.264 (conforming to H.264 while adding additional application-specific features and constraints). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264/MPEG-4_AVC #---------------------------------- My Lumix digital camera uses AVCHD Lite, a Sony/Panasonic file format that records in 720P.
