Can someone explain the difference between audio format and codecs?
wikipedia says this:
A codec performs the encoding and decoding of the raw audio data while the data itself is stored in a file with a specific audio file format.
I don't get this.
lets says 1000 1111 is the digital value which when passing through the codec is translated as "HELLO".
what would different formats turn this value into? Like MP3 or WAV , etc. If they modify this binary value and that value goes through the same codec than it would something else other than HELLO , right?
