SGI to AVIF Conversion: FAQ
What are SGI files?

It is a bitmap file that can store black-and-white, gray-scale and color images, and may also contain color maps and alpha channels. SGI files are sometimes referred to as RGBs and can either use no image compression or RLE compression. Alternative extensions for the SGI format are BW, RGB and RGBA.
What are AVIF files?
AVIF is a new image format launched at the end of 2020. AV1 Image File Format was developed by the Alliance for Open Media in collaboration with Netflix, Google and Cisco. This format was created to be an open-sourced and royalty-free image format with a super-compression efficiency.
