About the WMV and MP4 formats

WMV

WMV is Microsoft’s Windows Media video format, common in older corporate training decks, Windows Movie Maker exports, and archived screen recordings. It plays reliably on Windows and almost nowhere else — no iPhone, no Android, no browser. Convert WMV to MP4 whenever the file needs to leave a Windows machine.

MP4

MP4 (MPEG-4 Part 14) is the most widely supported video container on the planet. It packs H.264 or H.265 video with AAC audio into a single file that plays natively on iPhone, Android, Windows, macOS, web browsers, smart TVs, and every modern editor. Use MP4 when you need a finished, shareable video that will just work, anywhere, without re-encoding.

How it works

How to convert WMV to MP4

  1. Upload or paste a WMV link

    Drop a WMV file from your device, or paste a public URL pointing to the WMV you want to convert.

  2. Confirm MP4 as the output format

    The output is pre-set to MP4. You can adjust quality or bitrate in the advanced options if you need a smaller file.

  3. Start the conversion

    Click Convert. Our cloud workers fetch the WMV, scan it for malware, and run the WMV → MP4 pipeline.

  4. Download your MP4 file

    A one-time pre-signed link appears as soon as the MP4 is ready. The file is automatically deleted from our storage 2 hours later.
