About MP4

MPEG-4 Part 14

The universal video format

MP4 is the most widely used video format, usually with H.264 video and AAC audio. Phones, cameras, websites and social networks all use it.

Strengths
Plays everywhere, with good quality at a small size.
Limitations
H.264 is less efficient than newer codecs such as HEVC or AV1.

About WebM

WebM (VP8/VP9 + Opus/Vorbis)

The open web video format

WebM is a royalty-free format by Google with VP8, VP9 or AV1 video and Opus or Vorbis audio, built for the web and HTML5 video.

Strengths
Free and open, supported by Chrome, Firefox and Edge; great for websites.
Limitations
Limited support in older Apple software, TVs and editing apps.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert MP4 to WebM?

Add your MP4 file to the tool above. WebM is already selected, so processing starts with the right settings. When it is done, click Download.

Will converting MP4 to WebM reduce the quality?

If the MP4 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 MP4 video uploaded anywhere?

No. The MP4 to WebM conversion runs entirely in your browser using ffmpeg compiled to WebAssembly. Your video never leaves your device.

How long does converting MP4 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.
