# Sample AVI video files for testing, free, CC0 and hotlinkable 1 AVI test file of 1.7 MB: MPEG-4 Part 2 and MP3. A direct URL, the file's SHA-256 and CC0, so curl and CI can fetch it with no signup and no keys. The page: . `avi/640x480-5s.avi` is for code that assumes video means H.264: it carries MPEG-4 Part 2 where `mp4/720p-5s.mp4` carries H.264, so a decoder, thumbnailer or transcoder that handles the MP4 and fails on this file has a codec assumption, not a container problem. The audio of `avi/640x480-5s.avi` is MP3, mono at 48 kHz, a 440 Hz tone with one MP3 frame to each chunk. `avi/640x480-5s.avi` keeps its `idx1` index after the media data, so a reader that seeks has to reach the end of the file first, and a download cut short has no index at all. `avi/640x480-5s.avi` also pads its header lists with `JUNK` chunks and holds a `vprp` chunk, which a parser has to skip by length, not reject. The second video chunk of `avi/640x480-5s.avi` is empty, a frame slot with no data, so a demuxer that takes an empty chunk for the end of the stream stops after one frame. At 640x480 and 30 frames per second, `avi/640x480-5s.avi` runs 5.04 seconds in 1,734,596 bytes. ## Files | Path | Size | MIME | Properties | |---|---|---|---| | [`avi/640x480-5s.avi`](https://loremfile.dev/avi/640x480-5s.avi) | 1.7 MB (1,734,596 bytes) | `video/x-msvideo` | 640x480, 5.04 s, mpeg4, Simple Profile, mp3, 48 kHz, 1 channel | The same list as JSON: .
