About formats

YUV is a raw pixel data format storing images in the Y'UV color model, where image data is separated into a luminance component (Y', representing brightness) and two chrominance components (U/Cb and V/Cr, representing color difference signals). The YUV color model originated with analog color television broadcasting — specifically the NTSC system adopted in 1953 and the PAL system in 1967 — where backward compatibility with existing black-and-white receivers required separating brightness from color information. In digital imaging, the ITU-R BT.601 standard (1982) formalized the digital YCbCr encoding derived from the analog YUV model, defining the conversion matrices and sample precision used by virtually all digital video and broadcast systems. YUV raw files contain no header, compression, or metadata — they are flat sequences of luminance and chrominance samples in a specified ordering (4:4:4, 4:2:2, 4:2:0, or other subsampling ratios), requiring external specification of dimensions, bit depth, and subsampling scheme. The 4:2:0 subsampling mode (where chrominance has half the horizontal and half the vertical resolution of luminance) is particularly common, used by H.264, H.265, AV1, and most consumer video codecs. One advantage is direct video pipeline compatibility: YUV data is the native input format for video encoders, hardware display controllers, and camera sensor ISPs, making raw YUV the most direct representation for frame-accurate video processing and analysis. The perceptual efficiency of the YUV color model is another fundamental strength — separating luma from chroma enables effective subsampling that halves or quarters the color data with minimal visible impact. YUV data is processed by FFmpeg, ImageMagick, and all video processing tools.

FB2 (FictionBook) is an XML-based ebook format created by Dmitry Gribov in 2004, designed to provide a clean semantic description of a book's content independent of its visual presentation. Unlike page-layout formats, FB2 encodes structure — title, authors, chapters, annotations, genres, epigraphs, poems, footnotes, and binary attachments (typically cover images) — within a single well-formed XML document. This structural approach means reading applications have full control over rendering, allowing the same file to adapt perfectly to a small phone screen or a large e-ink reader. FB2 became enormously popular in Russia and Eastern Europe, serving as the dominant format on major Russian digital libraries and ebook distribution platforms. One significant advantage is metadata richness: the format's schema mandates detailed bibliographic information including author, translator, series position, publication date, and genre classification, making library management and discovery straightforward. The plain-text XML foundation is another strength — FB2 files are human-readable, easy to validate, and simple to transform using standard XML tools like XSLT. The format specification is freely available on GitHub, and a wide ecosystem of readers, editors, and converters supports it across all major platforms, from desktop applications like Calibre to dedicated e-readers with native FB2 rendering.
