MP4 to WebM: light video for sites and browsers

WebM is an open format, well accepted by browsers and used on sites. Convert your MP4 to WebM (VP9 with Opus audio). Since the codecs change, the video is re-encoded. Note: in this tool the WebM can come out bigger than the original MP4 (in a test, a 1.2 MB MP4 became 2.3 to 2.6 MB), so use this format when you need it, not to save space.

Tips for a good result

  • If the file needs to be small, convert and then reduce with WebFaz Video Compressor, which also produces WebM.
  • Not every editor and old device opens WebM: check where you will use it.

What this tool does not do

  • Re-encoding is slower than a container swap and has some loss.
  • iPhones and older programs may not play WebM.
  • The app does not change the resolution or aspect ratio.
  • The new file carries the “WebFaz.com” credit in the metadata (comment and artist).
