    What happens to your M4V

    If the video is already H.264 or HEVC, we re-wrap it into MOV without re-encoding. That takes seconds and loses nothing.

    Otherwise the video is re-encoded with settings that look the same as the original at a sensible file size. Large videos take roughly as long as they play.

    This conversion runs on our server. Your file is deleted within 60 minutes, and you can delete it yourself as soon as you have downloaded the result.
