    About the formats

    .avi

    AVI is an old Microsoft video format. Files are often large and use dated codecs, so modern phones and browsers frequently can't play them.

    .gif

    GIF is an old image format limited to 256 colours per frame. It survives because it plays short animations everywhere, from chat apps to email, without needing a video player.
