Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to install software to transcode videos?
No. The tool transcodes videos locally in your browser using the WebCodecs API — no software installation required.
Which video formats are supported?
Common video formats are supported for local transcoding, with customizable resolution, bitrate, and export presets.
Are videos uploaded to a server?
No. All video processing runs entirely in your browser, protecting your content's privacy.
How compatible is the MP4 output?
MP4 relies on the browser's WebCodecs support, so Chrome/Edge are recommended. If the browser cannot encode audio, a silent version is produced automatically; WebM is a safer default.
What bitrate should I use?
Lower bitrates reduce file size but lower quality. We recommend adjusting within the 1500–4000 Kbps range to balance the two; keep the page open while compression runs.
