AVI converter
AVI is an old video container often found in archives and camera recordings. Modern phones, TVs and social networks do not always accept it, so AVI is converted to MP4 or WebM.
Convert from AVI
Why convert AVI
AVI lacks many modern features and is poorly suited to streaming. MP4 with H.264/AAC plays almost everywhere, while WebM saves bandwidth on a website.
Which format to choose
MP4 is the universal option for phones, TVs and social media. WebM is for embedding video on a website in modern browsers.
Format questions
Why does AVI not open on a phone?
Smartphones often do not support the AVI container or the codecs inside it. MP4 with H.264/AAC plays without extra apps.
Is quality lost?
The video is re-encoded, so a small loss is possible, but at high quality it is usually invisible. Keep the original.
What are the AVI conversion limits?
Up to 100 MB, 5 minutes and Full HD resolution. For longer recordings, use a desktop converter.
