About Video Converter
Convert videos between MP4, MOV, WEBM, AVI, MKV, WMV, FLV, 3GP and more, so they play on any phone, TV, editor or website. Choose the output format, then optionally pick a quality level and a smaller resolution such as 1080p or 720p. You can convert several videos in one go.
Which format should you choose?
- MP4 is the safest choice. It plays on iPhone, Android, Windows, Mac, smart TVs and every major website. When in doubt, choose MP4.
- MOV suits Apple devices and editing in Final Cut Pro or iMovie.
- WEBM is made for websites and gives small files in modern browsers.
- MKV is a flexible container popular for films and archiving.
- AVI, WMV, FLV and 3GP are older formats. Choose them only when an old device, program or school system asks for them.
- GIF turns a short clip into a looping animation; for more control use Video to GIF.
Quality and resolution, explained simply
Quality decides how much detail is kept in each frame. Standard (default) looks like the original on phones and laptops. High keeps more detail for editing or big screens but makes the file bigger. Smaller file saves space, with softer detail in fast-moving scenes.
Resolution sets the size of the picture. Keep original is right most of the time. To make a video much smaller, choose a lower resolution: 1080p (Full HD) is plenty for most screens, 720p is good for sharing on messaging apps and email, and 480p or 360p for the smallest files. Choosing a higher resolution than the original does not add detail, so the converter is most useful for going down, not up.
Tips for faster, smaller videos
- Trim first. If you only need part of a video, cut it with Trim Video before converting.
- Just need it smaller? Video Compressor keeps your format and focuses on file size.
- Need only the sound? Choose MP3 with Video to MP3 instead of converting the whole video.
- iPhone videos that will not play on Windows? Convert MOV to MP4 at the default settings; it fixes the problem in most cases.
