First time slower, but it's worth it!About types of files
FLV
FLV was once the go-to format for streaming video on the web, especially on platforms like Twitch before the rise of MP4. It’s optimized for online playback, making it great for streaming or recording but less ideal for other uses.While it’s still supported by some older systems and platforms, FLV has largely fallen out of favor as newer formats like MP4 offer better compression and quality.
However, FLV remains popular to many, for example a lot of OBS Studio users still uses it for recording because it has a unique advantage: if a recording session crashes or there's insufficient disk space on the machine, the FLV file can often still be read and recovered.
This makes it a reliable choice for those who want to minimize the risk of losing their footage.
AVI
AVI is a well-established video format that provides high-quality playback but usually comes with larger file sizes.It's commonly used for professional video editing and production because it offers minimal compression, preserving detail and clarity.
AVI files are supported by many media players, although they may not be as compatible with streaming platforms or mobile devices as other formats like MP4.
