What is AVI?

AVI

AVI uses RIFF (Resource Interchange File Format) container introduced by Microsoft in 1992. Supports multiple video codecs (DivX, Xvid, H.264) and audio codecs (MP3, PCM, AC3) with interleaved data chunks. Original specification limited files to 2GB; OpenDML extension removes size restrictions. Converting to modern containers like MP4 often involves remuxing streams or re-encoding with more efficient codecs.

MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) encompasses video compression standards from MPEG-1 through MPEG-4. Uses predictive compression with I/P/B frames. MPEG-2 is DVD standard; MPEG-4 Part 10 is H.264. Converting between MPEG variants involves codec transcoding.
