ABOUT HAV FILE FORMAT
HAV is our own file format made for real-time playing and
archiving of high-quality audio and video, such as rendered
animations. HAV format keeps the original image quality (uses
lossless compression). Other famous formats, like AVI, JPEG and
MPEG reduce the image quality each time you save the image (more
times you save, more quality you loose). HAV compresses at least
twice as good as FLI/FLC and supports 256, 64k and 16.7M colors
(FLI/FLC supports only up to 256 colors).
