Why convert in your browser?

🔒

Your video never leaves your computer

Conversion runs on your computer — not on someone else's server. Zero uploads.

Lossless remux when possible

If your MKV file already contains H.264 video, we just rewrap it into an MP4 container — no re-encoding, no quality loss, near-instant.

🎬

Handles OBS + ripped sources

Matroska handles any codec — H.264, H.265, VP9, AV1. We auto-detect and either remux (lossless) or transcode to H.264, whichever applies.

🚫

No watermark, no signup, no caps

CloudConvert caps free users at 10 conversions/day. Zamzar limits at 50 MB. VEED watermarks. We don't do any of that.

📦

No file size limit

Drop a 4 GB drone clip if you want. The only limit is your device's available memory — there's no upload step to choke on.

🌐

Works offline after first visit

The engine downloads once, then runs forever. Turn off Wi-Fi to verify — conversion keeps working.

Common questions

Why does my .mkv file not play in QuickTime or my phone?

MKV (Matroska) is a flexible container format popular with OBS, Handbrake, and ripping tools — but Apple QuickTime, the iPhone Photos app, and many mobile players don't support it natively. The fix is to remux into MP4, which is universally supported. If the video stream inside is already H.264, no re-encoding is needed.

How long does conversion take?

If your source already contains H.264 (older iPhones, most QuickTime recordings), conversion is a fast remux — usually under a second. For HEVC sources requiring transcode, expect 10–60 seconds per minute of footage depending on resolution and CPU.

Does my video get uploaded to your server?

No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser. Disconnect from Wi-Fi after the page loads to verify — the converter keeps working.

Is there a watermark or file-size limit?

Neither. Plain .mp4 output. No backend means no caps — the only limit is your device's available memory.

Will I lose quality?

If the source is H.264, we remux (copy the video stream into MP4 without re-encoding) — 100% lossless. For HEVC and other codecs, we transcode at CRF 18 by default, which is visually lossless for nearly all viewers.

Turn off your Wi-Fi. It still works.

That's how you know nothing leaves your computer.

CloudConvert, Zamzar, FreeConvert, VEED — they all send your video to a server. We don't. Conversion runs on your CPU, in your browser, via the same ffmpeg engine VLC and YouTube use.
