FAQ

Why convert MP4 to WMV?

WMV is Microsoft’s native format, ensuring smooth playback in Windows Media Player, PowerPoint, Outlook, and many legacy devices without extra codecs.

What’s the difference between WMV 9 and WMV 8?

WMV 9 is newer, offers better compression, and handles HD resolutions. WMV 8 maximises compatibility with very old Windows versions (2000/XP). Choose either in Advanced settings.

Will converting to WMV reduce quality?

Our encoder balances quality and size automatically. Increase bitrate in Advanced settings for near-lossless output, or lower it for smaller files.

Can I embed the WMV into PowerPoint?

Yes. WMV is the most reliable video format for PowerPoint 2007 – 2021 and Office 365—just insert the file and it plays without prompts.

Does WMV work on macOS or Linux?

Cross-platform players like VLC, Kodi, and Plex open WMV. Safari and QuickTime may need a plugin; offer an MP4 fallback for Mac users.

What’s the maximum upload size?

Videos up to 100 MB are supported. Larger projects should be trimmed or compressed locally before upload.

How secure are my files?

Files move over HTTPS, are processed only in volatile memory, and are automatically deleted minutes after conversion.
