Glossary of Terms

Frame Rate:
Frame-rate, or Frame Frequency, is the term used to describe the frequency at which a digital imagining device produces unique consecutive images called Frames. Commonly used in computer graphics, video cameras, film cameras, monitor capture systems, Frame-rate is one of the biggest issues when producing a film/video or video game. A slow Frame-rate can make the picture look edgy and jumpy, whilst a high Frame-rate allows the product to run smoothly and clear. In online video games, Frame-rate can clash with bandwidth of the internet being associated with. If the user has a slow bandwidth, a slow Frame-rate can soon follow. FPS (frames per second) is a widely used expression in talking about Frame-rate.
File Compression:
Data Compression is used for the purpose of shrinking down files/folders into smaller data sizes for easier storage or faster downloading if posted on the internet. Mostly used for music or video game tranfers, "zipped" files make the whole process of obtaining a certain program or addon much faster and easier i.e. a file can be compressed to a folder around the size of 500kb.
Streaming:
A common method for transferring data as a steady and continuous stream that allows quick viewing of a video or picture product. Although easy to view and enjoy, the acutal product cannot be downloaded by traditional means, and in most cases, will require the user to obtain it in a  different format i.e. one that has been unpload as a download.
