Hi All
Could somebody please advise me as to which is the best file format for
video.
I've saved some DVD content as AVI and it created a huge file and the file
wouldn't play unless the right codec was installed in my friend's laptop.
All very messy.
I've tried WMV, which did create a smaller file size, but I thought AVI was
the standard? If WMV makes smaller files and no codec issues then why
doesn't everybody simply use WMV?
Is AVI really MPEG-4?
I've seen that I can save a file as MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 and I didn't know if
these would be better formats, ie compatibility and file size wise.
Any pointers you can give to fill the huge gaps in my knowledge would be
really appreciated.
Thanks
