Convert MPEG to AVI

.mpeg

MPEG-1 (Moving Picture Experts Group file extension) is a standard for lossy compression of audio and video. It is created to compress VHS-quality raw digital video and CD audio down to 1.5 Mbit/s without excessive quality loss, making video CDs, digital cable/satellite TV, and digital audio broadcasting possible. It is one of the most popular and widely compatible video/audio formats in the world.

MPEG-1 is made to code video and related audio for storage of about 1.5 Mbits/s, which enables encoding to a CD or low-quality DVD. MPEG -2 was designed for high-quality television. MPEG-3, which was made for higher resolution in HDTV, was afterward combined with MPEG-2 as they are very similar. MPEG-4 is used for graphical content for computers, and compression and coding are much more efficient.

.avi

AVI stands for Audio and Video Interleave. It has an extension written as .avi, and users use this same format to store audio and video on their PC, which was developed by Microsoft in 1992 for its Video for Windows project. It allows the simultaneous playback by keeping video and audio into a single file. The simple architecture of .avi format will enable it to run on various operating systems such as Windows, Mac, Linux, Unix. It is supported by multiple web players as well.

AVI format uses Resource Interchange File Format (RIFF) support, where the real data is stored into chunks, and each chunk gets recognized by a FourCC tag. Out of these individual chunks, the first one can be recognized by the hdrl tag, and it can decode the chunk containing metadata for the video. The second chunk gets identified by the movi tag, and it includes the actual audio and visual data which makes up the AVI movie. It uses less compression rather than the MOV and MPEG file formats.
