What is a codec?
A codec is a device or computer program capable of encoding and/or decoding a digital data stream or signal.
The term codec is short for compression/decompression; and thus a codec is an algorithm or special computer program that reduces the number of bytes consumed by large files. At the audio level, a codec stands for coder/decoder and it is a device used to convert analog signals to digital bit streams and vice versa so it is used to allow voice and video communication over digital networks.
