Free DownloadXvid is a MPEG-4 video codec for PC. Its purpose is to compress video in order to allow for faster transmission over computer networks or for more efficient storage on computer disks. Hence, Xvid can somewhat be seen as a ZIP for video. A big advantage of Xvid compressed video files is that they play almost anywhere. Xvid runs very fast as it is optimized for the latest CPUs. The Xvid codec compresses video files to make them smaller. It can compress video at a ratio of 200:1 or more compared to uncompressed video. Xvid is “lossy” compression but aims at removing just those picture details that are not important for human perception. As such, it be seen as a MP3 for video. Xvid is distributed as free and open-source software. And that means you can obtain it really for free. It doesn’t come bundled with adware, crapware, no malware, no browser toolbars.
