MKV → M4V

Cadw pa un bynnag sy' n cydweddu â lle mae' r ffeil yn mynd, oherwydd nid yw' r naill na' r llall yn well yn y disgrifiad. Adeiladir un o' r ddau yma ar gyfer cydnawsedd chwarae a' r llall ar gyfer cadw popeth y gallai ffeil ei gynnwys, ac maent yn masnachu yn erbyn ei gilydd yn union ar hyd y llinell hon. Y ateb pragmatig ar gyfer y rhan fwyaf o llyfrgelloedd yw archifo yn y cynhwysydd sy' n llawn nodweddion ac allforio i' r un cydnaws ar gais. MKV yw'r cynhwysydd archif dewisol oherwydd mae'n storio traciau sain diderfyn, isdeitlau meddal, marciau pennod a lluniau cylchdro mewn un ffeil. Mae M4V yn cadw marciau pennod, gwaith celf a traciau isdeitlau yn y ffurf y disgwylir gan y rhaglen Apple TV, sy'n aml yn colli MP4 arferol.

It depends on the M4V container. MP4, MOV and MKV output use H.264, which plays on practically every phone, browser and TV. WebM output uses VP9. AVI, WMV and MPEG output use the older codecs those formats were designed for. M4V yw Apple's amrywiol o MP4, yn cael ei ddefnyddio gan iTunes a'r Apple TV app ar gyfer ffilmiau a rhaglenni teledu.

Yes, the main audio track comes through, re-encoded to a codec the M4V container plays, for example AAC in MP4 and MOV or Opus in WebM. Most conversions keep only that one track (the one with the most channels), so alternate languages and commentary are dropped. MP4 to MOV, and AVI, WMV, MPEG, FLV, VOB or M4V to MKV, keep every audio track.

Yes. The frame rate is kept unless you change it: a 24 fps MKV stays 24 fps in the M4V. The Frame Rate setting can also convert to 60, 30 or 24 fps. It changes the rate only; it does not deinterlace the video or remove 3:2 pulldown.

It depends on what happens to the video. MKV to MP4 or MOV with the default settings copies the video stream unchanged, so the size stays close to the source. Most other pairs re-encode it: a high-bitrate MKV usually comes out smaller, while an already heavily compressed one can grow. Smaller File under Quality gives the smallest output, and H.265 in the Codec setting (MP4, MOV and MKV) is usually smaller than H.264 at similar quality but plays on fewer devices.

MP4 with H.264 plays on practically every phone, browser and TV. MOV with H.264 plays on Apple devices and most TVs but not on every older Android phone. MKV needs an app such as VLC on iOS, and WebM is at home in browsers. There is no device preset on this page, so choose the target format your device supports. Ni ellir trosi pryniadau M4V sydd wedi'u diogelu gan DRM gan unrhyw beth; dim ond ffeiliau M4V heb eu diogelu sy'n trosiadwy, ac mae chwaraewyr nad ydynt yn Apple yn aml yn angen ail-enwi'r estyniad.

There is no fixed time: it depends on the length, the resolution and the target format. Conversions run on our servers' CPUs with software encoders; there is no GPU acceleration. MKV to MP4 or MOV with the default settings copies the video stream and is the quickest. A re-encode to H.264 takes longer, and WebM (VP9) is the slowest target, several times slower than H.264 in our tests.

The converter has no resolution cap of its own; the limit is the upload size allowed on your plan, and the resolution stays as it is unless you choose 1080p, 720p or 480p. There is no HDR processing or tone mapping. When the video stream is copied (MKV to MP4 or MOV with the default settings), HDR10 passes through untouched. A re-encode drops the HDR10 mastering metadata, and with a Quality, Resolution or Frame Rate setting some pairs also reduce the video to 8-bit colour, so an HDR MKV can look washed out.

Yes. Uploaded MKV files are processed on our own conversion servers, no person reviews them, and they are never shared. The upload and the converted M4V are both deleted automatically about 24 hours after the conversion, which leaves time to download the result. See /privacy/ for the full policy.

Not in the same step. Use /trim-video/ or /video-cutter/ to clip the MKV first, or /rotate-video/ to turn it, then run the MKV to M4V conversion. Trimming first is faster than re-encoding the whole MKV just to drop unused footage.

Usually the output was compressed harder than the source. Open the conversion options, choose High Quality under Quality, keep Resolution at Original and convert again. There is no CRF or bitrate field on this page; High Quality is the setting that keeps the most detail.
