Why convert RM to AVI?

  • Compatibility is the main reason to convert when another person or service cannot open the source.
  • The new format may support a feature the source container does not.
  • The result can be reviewed without changing the file that other people still use.
  • AVI is more appropriate for the target application, device, or delivery channel than RM.

Will quality change?

The conversion standardizes the container and codecs for compatibility. It is a delivery step, not a lossless remux. Check a sample before processing a large batch.

Processing and limits

Server-side
Engine
FFmpeg
Maximum size
100 MB per file on the server.
Batch support
Yes, multiple files can be queued; completed results can be downloaded as a ZIP.
Quality controls
Options can adjust output dimensions, audio bitrate.

The file is processed on the server because the conversion requires a server-side engine or a utility operation.

  • RM features without a direct AVI equivalent may not survive the conversion.
  • Check metadata, dimensions, and compatibility after the conversion.
  • Very large files can hit the 100 MB server limit before conversion starts.

Platform compatibility

The output is a AVI file. Use an application or device that accepts that format, and test the result on the destination platform if compatibility is critical.

When not to convert

  • Avoid repeated lossy conversions when quality matters; start from the highest-quality source available.
  • If the file contains sensitive data, review the processing model before uploading it to a server.
  • Do not convert when the original RM must remain the only editable or archival copy.
