Limits
Starting point: MPEG-4 - MPEG-4 is the ISO media standard behind DivX, Xvid, and H.264. Part numbers vary, so confirm the codec before converting. Seek indexes can be sparse, so verify duration after conversion. Encode F4V (H.264 / AAC) from MPEG-4 at a bitrate near the source, and confirm the audio track before converting.
How conversion works
Conversion runs entirely in your browser with FFmpeg WASM. Files never leave your device.
