The widely spread notion of AVI being a codec is incorrect as AVI is a container format, which many codecs might use (although not to ISO standard). There are other well-known alternative containers such as Ogg, ASF, QuickTime, RealMedia, Matroska, DivX, MKV, and MP4. A codec is a device or computer program capable of encoding and/or decoding a digital data stream or signal. The word codec is a portmanteau of 'compressor-decompressor' or, most commonly, 'coder-decoder'. MKV compresses codecs into smaller good quality movies.
Do install the latest Matroska codec pack source 1 or Matroska Pack Full source 2 for the mkv splitter filter (recommended) for any methods chosen below.
