Frame.io supports a wide range of file types, including standard video, image, audio, and PDF types. Any file uploaded to a project can be viewed and reviewed, provided it’s in a supported format.
Frame.io uses an accelerated file uploader to upload large media files without compression. It encodes the files into H.264 videos for smooth playback on the web while keeping the original file available for download.
