=Description=
'''Content Information Files''' are [[Multimedia Formats and Tools|Multimedia files]] used to display the content in the [[XMB]].


'''Content Information Files''' are multimedia files used to display the content in the [[XMB]].
Only '''ICON0.PNG''' is mandatory. The other information related with the content (inputs/outputs) is stored in [[PARAM.SFO]].


Only '''ICON0.PNG''' is mandatory, the rest are optionall and there is no security over them, so can be removed, replaced or added without problems, the system doesn't needs them to load the content.
==Languages==
Games/apps developers can choose if adding '''Content Information Files''' localized for the languages supported by the system, in this case the file name has a ''language number code'' added at his right from the table below


The rest of the information related with the content (inputs/outputs) is stored in [[PARAM.SFO]].
The system decides wich '''Content Information Files''' to load based on the language selected by the user in {{icon category settings}} column in [[XMB]]


==GAME Column in XMB==
When the game/app doesnt have '''Content Information Files''' that matches the user language the system loads the default ones (without the ''language number code'' added at his right)


===Game Data Utility===
For more details about language dependant files see the [[Languages]] page
Refered to the content displayed at the top of the "Game" column in XMB inside "Game Data Utility" folder (categories: GD, 2D). Note that the same (category: GD) is refered to two different contents ("additionall content for games" and "game patches").

This language codes are used in several places when talking about the content in a PS3 (and PSP) e.g:
*Some parameters inside .SFO contains language specific names (e.g. TITLE_'''xx''')
*Audio tracks of .BIK video files (.BIK format supports 1 video track + severall audio tracks, the system decides wich ones to play). Note this number can be changed by the game
*Trophy installers contains several files for several languages used as "source files", only one is installed
*Information in themes translated in several languages, e.g: "theme name" "genre" "comment", etc...
