# VOD outputs: Supported codecs
<a name="codec-vod-outputs"></a>

This table specifies the codecs that are supported in output groups that support VOD outputs.

Use this table if you identified a use case in [Output types for delivery to an AWS service](cc-outputs-aws.md) or [Output types for delivery to non-AWS destinations](cc-output-not-aws.md) where your output is VOD output. 

In the table, find the output group and container (if applicable) for the user case that you identified. Then read across to identify the video and audio codecs that are supported for that output group.

Use this table if you want to deliver uncompressed video in an Archive output group. The table specifies the 4CC codes that are supported for uncompressed video, and the pixel formats for each 4CC code.
