FAQ

WEBM to MP4, answered.

Will I lose quality converting WEBM to MP4?

The change is minimal. Both formats are compressed, and PrivateRemix converts at a high quality setting so there is no visible or audible drop for everyday use.

Why won't my WEBM play in QuickTime?

WEBM is designed for browsers and isn't natively supported by QuickTime or many editors. Converting to MP4 makes it play in almost any player.

Is MP4 the best video format?

For sharing and playback, yes — MP4 is supported by nearly every phone, TV, browser and editor, which is why it's the safe default.

Do my files get uploaded when I convert WEBM to MP4?

No. PrivateRemix runs entirely on your Mac using its own processor. Your WEBM files never leave the device — there is no server to upload to, and it works fully offline.

Can I convert several WEBM files to MP4 at once?

Yes. Drop in a batch of WEBM files and PrivateRemix converts them all locally, saving each new MP4 next to its original.
