What is a AVI File Type?

The AVI format is based on the Resource Interchange File Format (RIFF), a container format for storing multimedia released in 1991. The AVI format was introduced in 1992 by Microsoft and is still widely used today. It is supported by a wide variety of video players, but the codec used to encode the video data must be supported by the player to play the video correctly.

The AVI video format can be used to store audio and video of high quality-and usually uses less compression than d' other similar video formats such as .MPEG and .MOV. This results in a very large size AVI file, which can be problematic for users with limited space.
