BINK Video Format RAD Game Tools Video Files
.BIK

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.

The BINK video file type also supports a wide range of other Real-Time Video Encoder (RTVE) technologies. For instance, it can encode DivX, WMV9, and MPEG-4 formats, which are all commonly used for movies. Additionally, it can also be used to transcode encrypted DVD streams and record output from DirectShow filters such as those found in web cams.

Similar File Extensions

BIK files are similar to many other file types such as .AVI, .MPEG, .MOV, and .WMV. These types of files may be found on various websites or network sources, including YouTube, Facebook, Hulu, and Netflix.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .BIK) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .BIK extension.

When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.

Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .BIK file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .BIK extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .BIK extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .BIK file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.

Other instructions

If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .BIK file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.

In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .BIK file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .BIK file) will be extended to the maximum.

It is also good to check

  • if the .BIK file has no errors
  • or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
In such a case it is best to try to download the .BIK file again from the same source on the Internet (or look for another source). If you received the file from another person, ask this person to re-send it. However, if the file was copied from some media, repeat the copying operation.
