Frequently asked questions

How do I convert M4V to WebM?

Add your M4V file to the tool above. WebM is already selected, so processing starts with the right settings. When it is done, click Download.

Will converting M4V to WebM reduce the quality?

If the M4V file already contains compatible streams they are copied without any loss. Otherwise the video is re-encoded at high quality, and the difference is very hard to see.

Is my M4V video uploaded anywhere?

No. The M4V to WebM conversion runs entirely in your browser using ffmpeg compiled to WebAssembly. Your video never leaves your device.

How long does converting M4V to WebM take?

If the streams can be copied, a few seconds. If the video has to be re-encoded, roughly one to three minutes per minute of 720p video on a computer, and longer on phones.
