Understanding MPEG and AVI file formats

MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) is a popular video compression format widely used for distributing video content. It offers efficient compression, making it suitable for streaming and storage. AVI (Audio Video Interleave), developed by Microsoft, is a multimedia container format that can hold both audio and video data in a file, allowing synchronous audio-with-video playback. AVI files are compatible with a wide range of media players and editing software, especially on Windows platforms.
