How to Convert MP4 to AVI

Today content makers mostly prefer MP4 when it comes to high quality at manageable file size. But what if you want ultimate video quality? Choose a lossless format for your footage, for example AVI.

Why choose AVI

AVI (also Audio Video Interleave) is a proprietary container format that was dominant in the early 2000s. Suitable for storing high-quality video and audio, AVI is still widely used and has comparative advantages:

  • Lossless. Your video file does not lose quality after compression.
  • Compatible. AVI supports lots of popular video codecs, which makes encoding easier.
  • Adaptable. The format is supported by most video players. AVI can be opened on Windows and other operating systems with third-party apps.
  • Best for DVDs. Many users choose to burn AVI videos onto discs for its high compatibility with digital video standards.

Keep in mind that AVI files are pretty bulky and cannot contain subtitles. These shortcomings make the format barely used for live streaming.

Have enough disk space and ready for better video quality? Let us see how to convert your MP4 files to AVI.
