Anime file formats
Each fan-sub releases their anime in 2 types of files, .mkv and .avi Each having their own pros and cons. Here is generally what they are:




.mkv eplanation -
This video format renders the audio, video and subtitles in 3 different parts. Thus explaining the lag people might get from watching vids with this format. Fan-subs like releasing this format first cuz they can easily edit the subtitles if there is a problem.




.avi explanation -
All of the video's contents will be compressed into 1. Basically audio, video and subtitles are merged and less memory will be used by the com.






.mkv Pros
- Generally higher resolution.
- Somewhat better sound quality.
- Usually released earlier.


.mkv Cons
- Might lag noob coms. Cuz the audio and video are 2 diff programs.
- The file size might be larger than .avi




.avi Pros
- No lag, anywhere anytime.
- File size smaller.


.avi Cons
- Smaller resolution.
- Somewhat worse sound quality but it isnt affected drasticly. Just minor...
-Usually released later.


Take that into consideration when downloading animes, have fun ;D
