Bink Video Codec

Particle EffectsUDK ships with Bink, the slick and accessible video codec used in thousands of computer and video games.

A "better-than-DVD" class codec, Bink compresses at higher quality than DVD at up to three times the playback speed. Bink also uses less memory at runtime than other codecs.
