Question 1

What is a video converter?

Accepted Answer

A video converter turns a video from one format into another, like MOV into MP4.

This one reads MOV, MKV, WebM, MP4 and GIF, and makes MP4, WebM, MOV or GIF.

Question 2

What is the best video format?

Accepted Answer

MP4 with H.264 video is the one every phone, player and site takes.

Pick WebM for web pages, MOV for Apple's editing apps, and GIF for short loops.

Question 3

Why is converting sometimes instant?

Accepted Answer

When the new format takes the video and sound as they are, they're copied instead of re-encoded.

MOV and MKV to MP4 usually work that way.

Question 4

Does converting lower the quality?

Accepted Answer

Copying keeps it exactly.

Re-encoding keeps it close: 0.99 on a scale where 1 is identical, in my test.

Question 5

Is the video converter free?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the video converter is free, with no account, no watermark and no limit on files.

It runs in your browser, so it costs nothing to run.

Question 6

Are my videos uploaded?

Accepted Answer

No, the video converter converts your videos in your browser.

They never leave your computer.

Question 7
