問 97
Incorrectア
Typical extensions that handle audio only are “wav”, “mp3”, “aac”, and so on. Although AVI also contains audio, it is essentially a video format with images, not a format whose sole target is audio, so it is wrong.
Incorrectイ
Extensions that handle still images (pictures) are “jpg”, “png”, “gif”, “bmp”, and so on. AVI is a video format made up of consecutive frames, not intended for still images, so it is wrong.
- ウ
正解 The extension “avi” stands for Audio Video Interleave (AVI), a video file format defined by Microsoft. It stores video data and audio data alternately (interleaved) within a single file for synchronized playback, so it is a “video container”, and the type of content it handles is “video”. Therefore the correct answer is ウ.
Incorrectエ
Extensions that handle documents are “doc”, “pdf”, “txt”, and so on. AVI is not a document file format, so it is wrong.
- AVI (Audio Video Interleave) is a video file format that stores video and audio alternately; its extension is “.avi”. The type of content it handles is video.
- Remember the correspondence between extensions and file types: audio = wav/mp3, still image = jpg/png/gif, document = doc/pdf/txt, video = avi/mp4/mov, and distinguish them.
