AVI
AVI is the most compatible video format for Windows devices. It is a multimedia container that contains audio and video content, as well as codecs for DVD and XVid. You can upload it on Facebook and YouTube, but not on other mobile-based social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok.
AVI uses less compression than video formats like MP4 so it tends to be larger in size. The most compatible media player for AVI videos is VLC. It is not compatible with QuickTime, which is made primarily for Apple devices.
WebM
WebM is a free storage format for streaming high-quality videos on the web. You can upload WebM videos on Facebook and YouTube, but not on mobile-based social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok. It is compatible with media players like VLC and Windows Media Player. You cannot play WebM files on QuickTime Media Player.
Content stored as WebM files features instant playback times. It requires a compatible browser to be played, like Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Internet Explorer.
