Why this one stays private

Converting a video elsewhere means uploading the whole thing, waiting, and trusting a stranger's server with footage that may not be yours to hand over. The conversion happens here instead.

Questions

What can I convert WMV to?

MP4, MOV, AVI, WebM and more. WMV is a Windows Media container that tends to be the odd one out on a Mac, so the usual reason to convert is to get a file that opens where this one does not.

Can a browser really open WMV files?

Not on its own - Chrome, Firefox and Safari cannot play WMV, which is why most in-browser converters turn WMV away or quietly upload it. This page brings its own decoder: FFmpeg, compiled to WebAssembly and fetched from this site (10 MB, once) the first time you convert. After that the WMV file is read entirely in this tab.

Does converting lose quality?

Only when it has to. If the video inside already suits the new format it is copied across untouched - MKV to MP4 with H.264 inside loses nothing and takes seconds. Otherwise the picture is re-encoded at a quality setting high enough that the difference is hard to see.

Is the sound kept?

Yes. The audio is copied across when the new format can hold it, and converted when it cannot.
