What is an .MPG file?
MPG files are video files saved in the MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) format, which compresses video and audio streams to reduce file size while maintaining reasonable quality. Unlike uncompressed formats such as AVI or MOV, MPG files use standardized lossy compression, making them suitable for distributing movies, TV shows, and other video content over the internet or on physical media. These files are commonly used for digital video playback, streaming, and archival purposes.
You may encounter MPG files when downloading video clips, ripping DVDs, or working with legacy multimedia projects that use MPEG compression. File Viewer Plus can play MPG files and convert them to MP4 formats at different resolutions and bitrates, making them compatible with a wider range of devices and media players.
Alternate file extensions: .mpeg
