What is MOV?
MOV
MOV (QuickTime Movie) uses Apple's container format based on MPEG-4 Part 12. Stores H.264/H.265 video with AAC audio, multiple tracks, subtitles, and chapter markers. Similar structure to MP4 but with QuickTime-specific atoms. Converting to other video formats involves remuxing containers or re-encoding codecs. Native format for Final Cut Pro and Apple ecosystem.

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.
