MP4 Converter

MP4 is the most broadly compatible modern video container, so it is a practical output when a file needs to work across phones, browsers, TVs and Windows apps.

When this format makes sense

Choose MP4 when compatibility matters more than retaining a source container.

For H.264 output, use a compatibility-oriented preset; H.265 or AV1 can reduce size when the playback device supports them.

When the source streams already fit the MP4 container, FastConvert can use stream copy rather than re-encoding.
