What is AVI?
AVI (Audio Video Interleave) is a multimedia container format developed by Microsoft in 1992. It stores both video and audio data, allowing synchronized playback. AVI files use less compression, resulting in larger file sizes compared to modern formats like MP4. It supports multiple codecs, affecting compatibility across devices. While still used, AVI is largely replaced by more efficient formats for online streaming.
What is MOV?
MOV is a video file format developed by Apple for QuickTime Player. It uses the MPEG-4 codec to store high-quality video, audio, and text in separate tracks. MOV files are widely used for editing and playback on macOS and iOS devices. They offer excellent compression while maintaining visual quality. MOV is compatible with various media players but works best with Apple software.
