MOV
MOV (QuickTime Movie) uses Apple's container format based on MPEG-4 Part 12. Stores H.264/H.265 video with AAC audio, multiple tracks, subtitles, and chapter markers. Similar structure to MP4 but with QuickTime-specific atoms. Converting to other video formats involves remuxing containers or re-encoding codecs. Native format for Final Cut Pro and Apple ecosystem.
