From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bink is a video file format (extension .bik) developed by RAD Game Tools and used primarily in computer games. It has been used in over 2,900 games for Mac OS, Windows, Xbox 360, Xbox, GameCube, Wii, Playstation 3, PlayStation 2, and Sony PSP. The format includes its own video and audio codecs, supporting resolutions from 320×240 all the way up to high definition video. It is bundled as part of the RAD Video Tools along with RAD Game Tools' previous video codec, Smacker video. It is a hybrid block-transform and wavelet codec capable of using 16 different encoding techniques allowing it to compress any type of video. The codec places emphasis on lower decoding requirements over other video codecs with specific optimizations for the different computer game consoles it supports.
