1. What is AVI?

AVI, Audio Video Interleaved, was released by Microsoft in Nov. 1992. Being a multi-media container of Windows, it can save audio and video in the same file and synchronize the video and audio playback.

Excellent compatibility is the merit of this AVI format. It is supported by Windows, Linux, Unix, Mac with the decoder-installed media player and most of the mainstream websites. However, the file size of files in this format will be large and the codec is not uniform which may lead to the Windows Media Player of latest version cannot play AVI files which used earlier codec. On the other hand, Windows Media Player of earlier version cannot play the AVI files with latest codec. Besides, this may also lead to errors when playing the AVI files like users can not adjust the play speed, or without image or sound when playing.

2. What is MOV?

MOV file, compressed by the MPEG-4 encoder, can store video, audio, text track and time code. Usually, it is used to save movies or other video files.
