Fast when possible

When the streams already fit the target format they are copied without re-encoding: done in seconds with zero quality loss.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert MPEG to AVI?

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

Will converting MPEG to AVI reduce the quality?

The video is re-encoded as MPEG-4 (Xvid) with MP3 audio at a high quality setting. Files are larger than modern formats, but play on old devices.

Is my MPEG video uploaded anywhere?

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

How long does converting MPEG to AVI 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.
