Explain the technical difference between a "codec" (like H.264) and a "container" (like MKV).

: When a client requests file.mkv , your server checks the client’s capabilities (e.g., Apple devices often prefer .mp4 over .mkv ). If the device doesn't support the raw format, the server converts the stream in real-time to a compatible format like H.264/AAC. http- myserver.com file.mkv
