Video format based onMPEG-4 video standard with certain modifications. 3ivX can be compared pretty easily toDivX ;-) format, but in this comparision 3ivX unfortunately loses in quality(at least currently, 10/2001).
3ivX is pretty popular format amongApple MacIntosh users, because of its extensive support for Mac. In other hand, Windows users have stayed away from this format because in its original format, 3ivX had to be stored inQuickTime file structure instead ofAVI file structure -- most of the Windows-based video editing tools don't support QuickTime, but either AVI orASF instead.
