What is BIK file?

A .BIK file is an encoded media format that is commonly associated with Bink video files. BINK is a proprietary video codec developed by RAD Game Tools, Inc. (RGT), and it is primarily used for the compression and playback of full motion video in computer games. BIK files can contain audio, video, or both and typically include multiple streams of data, such as MPEG-4 or H.264, which are the most common stream types associated with these files.

How to convert the file from BIK to H261?

To successfully convert the BIK file to H261, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.BIK). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case H261 (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than H261).

What is a file conversion?

A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. BIK to H261. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting BIK files to H261 files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension H261, while before this step we had the BIK file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new H261 file, or not.
