AVI (Audio Video Interleave)

AVI is a legacy multimedia container developed by Microsoft that interleaves audio and video streams. While it supports many codecs, AVI lacks modern features like native streaming, variable frame rates, and subtitle tracks, making it largely obsolete for new content.

AVI uses the RIFF container with interleaved audio and video chunks. It supports many codecs (DivX, Xvid, MJPEG) but lacks standardized support for B-frames, variable bitrate audio, and modern features.

Gecmis

Microsoft introduced AVI in 1992 as part of the Video for Windows framework. It was the dominant video format on PCs throughout the 1990s and early 2000s before being superseded by MP4 and MKV.
