FAQ

What’s the difference between MPEG-1 and MPEG-2?

MPEG-1 targets low-resolution VCD and some early set-top boxes, while MPEG-2 supports DVD and digital TV (DVB/ATSC) with higher bitrates up to Full HD.

Will converting to MPEG reduce video quality?

MPEG uses older compression, so file size rises for the same quality. Pick a higher bitrate in Advanced settings to minimise visible loss.

Can I burn the exported MPEG straight to DVD?

Yes. The MPEG-2 file meets DVD-Video specs. Import it into any DVD authoring program to add menus and create disc images.

Does the tool keep my original aspect ratio (16:9 / 4:3)?

Absolutely. We read the source PAR/SAR and flag the MPEG file correctly so it displays without stretching.

What’s the maximum upload size?

Videos up to 100 MB are accepted. Larger projects should be trimmed or encoded locally before uploading.

How secure are my files?

All transfers use encrypted HTTPS. Files are processed only in volatile memory and are automatically deleted minutes after conversion.
