It would be like building UHARC compression tech into an AVI file.īut I'm guessing you could use the MKV container format to backup say a 4 gig DVD, and then use the UHARC or WinUHARC format to make it super small.Īll you would have to do then is ( just two steps before playing the video, most avi's are zipped in a zip or rar format anyway so no biggie)ġ.) Uncompress the file using the self extracting UHARCĢ.) Then play the DVD using a player that supports the MKV container format. (I'm speaking as a user here, not a programmer or video expert)( I don't know how much an MKV compresses) And i suggest using MKV because it is ONLY a container, not a compression tool. I suggest using an MKV format because AVI's don't compress much more than they already are once they are in AVI format. I have things I downloaded that are 2 or 3 gigs compressed down to just 200 MB, and if you use WinUHARC for this, you can even make a self extracting file.

You see, I have seen a lot of downloads that are mostly games super compressed with UHARC or WinUHARC. I was wondering if anyone has ever tried to use UHARC or WinUharc to compress video? either am MKV or AVI?
