The WebM format was developed by Google and released in 2010 as an open, royalty-free alternative to proprietary formats, while AVI (Audio Video Interleave) was developed by Microsoft in 1992.
AVI is one of the oldest video container formats still in use today. While WebM is optimized for web streaming and offers excellent compression with VP8/VP9 video codecs, AVI has long been a standard on Windows systems.
Despite its age, AVI remains popular due to its broad compatibility with older systems and software, making it valuable for archival purposes and when working with legacy equipment.
Converting WebM to AVI involves repackaging the video and audio streams from the WebM container format to Microsoft's AVI container.
Unlike more modern formats, AVI has limitations in supporting advanced features like variable bitrate audio or multiple subtitle tracks.
During conversion, WebM's VP8/VP9 video is typically transcoded using codecs like DivX, Xvid, or Motion JPEG that are well-supported within the AVI container.
AVI files tend to be larger than their WebM counterparts when using similar quality settings, as WebM's modern compression techniques may not be fully supported in AVI.
For optimal results, the conversion process carefully balances compatibility requirements with quality preservation.
Pro Tip: Converting from WebM to AVI is ideal when you need compatibility with older systems, legacy software, or when working with applications that don't support modern web formats.
