I see this "avi is only a container" mentioned many times here. At work we
often encode (capture) to un-compressed AVI so we can freely manipulate the
file using Sorenson etc. The un-compressed AVI file plays fine in Win media
player. The encoding program is Digital Rapids Stream. We've never thought
much about the actual process. So I'm wondering what codecs are involved.
Maybe I need to dig into the detailed default settings of Stream or is it
that when doing un-compressed no codec is used? Or can that not be? Just
curious.
