About AVI Files

An .avi file is a multimedia file saved in the Audio Video Interleave (AVI) format, a container format developed by Microsoft in 1992 for storing both video and audio data in a single file. AVI files can contain various video and audio codecs, allowing them to combine high-quality video with synchronized audio for playback on PCs and media players. The format was widely used in the 1990s and 2000s for movies, TV shows, and personal recordings due to its broad compatibility with Windows-based systems.

AVI files are commonly found as downloaded videos, video exports from editing software, or digital archives. Users can open and play .avi files on FileHelper.com by dragging them to this page.
