Greetings,

I have wondered how the Images and the Audio is placed in a Video  File
We speak of them as Tracks but I am trying to learn how it is placed
binarily one after the other.
It is after all just a binary list of numbers or codes.

I download files which are in dash format from Youtube using youtube-dl.
And it appears that the Video is separately downloaded and Audio separately
After that the 2 files are merged together into one file.

I would much appreciate having a pointer in the directions where I
could read more about this.

Regards
Mettavihari
