Convert BIK to MP4

Understanding BIK and MP4 file formats

BIK is a proprietary video file format developed by RAD Game Tools, primarily used for video playback in video games. It is known for its high compression and quality, making it suitable for game developers who need to include video content without significantly increasing the game's file size.

MP4, or MPEG-4 Part 14, is a digital multimedia container format most commonly used to store video and audio. It is widely supported across various platforms and devices, making it a popular choice for video distribution and streaming.

Why convert BIK to MP4?

Converting BIK files to MP4 can be beneficial for several reasons. MP4 files are more versatile and compatible with a wide range of media players and devices. This conversion allows users to easily share and play their video content outside of the gaming environment.
