Background

Bink Video is a video compression format developed by RAD Game Tools in 1999 as the successor to Smacker, which was the 256-color video compression codec released in 1994. The format uses the file extension .bik and spreads massively in video games.

(1999-)

Logo: On a white (sometimes black) background, we see an upside-down red/blue cone that is surrounded by a yellow spiral, forming a drill shape. Above it is "BINK", slightly connected to the top of the spiral, and "VIDEO" is seen at the bottom.

Technique: None.

Audio: None.

Availability: Can be seen on many games with this format, although not all use this logo.
