Convert ASF to Android
|
Android is an operating system for mobile devices such
as smartphones and tablet computers. The most Android devices support the following
video codecs: H.263, H.264, and MPEG-4 SP in 3GP or MP4 formats.
ASF to Android Converter Software converts ASF to Android compatible
3GP and MP4 easily. The output file is compatible with almost any Android
devices such as Samsung Galaxy, HTC Titan, Motorola Droid, and so
on. And, the file is playable by Android built-in media player without any extra
applications.
The software also supports other formats and portable devices such as Xvid, M4V, DTS, WAV, Windows Phone, ASF, AU,
etc. The software could convert OGG to MPA, H264 to H.264, WebM to Xvid, M4V to MPA, 3G2 to TS, and so on. ASF to Android Software
supports batch conversion and, is compatible with Windows 10/8/7/Vista/XP/2000.
What is ASF?
Advanced Streaming Format is an open file format specification for streaming
multimedia files containing text, graphics, sound, video, and animation.
The advantage of ASF format is that you may begin playing your video file
before it is streamed to the end. The format specifies the structure of
the video/audio stream. Windows Media Audio (WMA) and Windows Media Video
(WMV) are the most common file types contained in an ASF file. Files containing
only WMA audio can be named using a .WMA extension, and files of audio
and video content may have the extension .WMV. Both may use the .ASF extension
if desired. An analysis of an older scheme used in WMA reveals that it
is using a combination of elliptic curve cryptography key exchange, DES
block cipher, a custom block cipher, RC4 stream cipher and the SHA-1 hashing
function. ASF files often contain Windows Media Audio (.WMA) or Windows
Media Video (.WMV) data. Although this differentiation was introduced in
2003, to this date most webbrowsers (including the latest versions of Internet
Explorer and Firefox) do not function as might be expected with the 'new'
extensions: even when a .wma or .wmv file is specifically encoded for progressive
download, browsers still proceed to completely download the file before
playing it. This can, however, be easily remedied by simply renaming the
.wma or .wmv file to the old extension .asf. The current version of Windows
Media Encoder produces files with the extension .WMA (and MIME-type 'audio/x-ms-wma')
and .WMV (MIME-type 'video/x-ms-asf'). An ASF file consists of three objects:
a Header object containing information about the file itself, a Data object
containing the media streams, and an optional Index object that can help
support random access to data within the file.
What is Android?
Android is a Linux-based operating system designed primarily for touchscreen
mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet computers. An Android phone
can run multiple applications at the same time in the background, making
multitasking easier. This makes the functionality of the phone more fluid
than some competing platforms, although the extent of this capability depends
on the hardware of the individual phone. Every day more than 1 million
new Android devices are activated worldwide. An Android phone is any smartphone
that runs the Android software platform. Because Android is an open sourced
software platform, multiple manufacturers produce Android phones, including
the likes of HTC, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, Motorola and LG, just to name
a few. This is unlike the closed platform of competitors like Apple, which
builds both the software and hardware of its iPhone, and Research in Motion
(RIM) -- manufacturer of BlackBerry smartphones -- which does the same.
Different generations of smart phones have run various versions of Android.
Each major software version is identified by a code name that is usually
related to some sort of dessert. In December 2011, Greg Kroah-Hartman announced
the start of the Android Mainlining Project, which aims to put some Android
drivers, patches and features back into the Linux kernel, starting in Linux
3.3. further integration being expected for Linux Kernel 3.4. Usage share
of the different versions as of November 1, 2012. Most Android devices
to date still run the older OS version 2.3 Gingerbread that was released
on December 6, 2010, due to most lower-end devices still being released
with it.
