Video playback refers to the process of playing back video content on a device, allowing users to view recorded or streamed visual media. This can include movies, television shows, online videos, and more. Video playback can occur on various devices, such as computers, smartphones, tablets, and smart TVs, using different software applications or media players. During video playback, the device decodes the video file format, such as MP4 or AVI, and displays the visual and audio components in sync. Users can control playback features, including play, pause, rewind, and fast forward, enhancing their viewing experience.
