Smaller, modern files
MPEG-1/2 uses old, inefficient compression. Re-encoding to MP4 (H.264) typically produces a much smaller file at the same visual quality — easier to store, upload and share.
Plays everywhere
Old .mpeg / .mpg files from DVDs, camcorders and TV captures don't reliably play on phones or in modern editors. MP4 is the universal standard that just works.
Private & secure
Your video files are uploaded over HTTPS, processed on EU servers, never shared with third parties, and permanently deleted one hour after conversion.

Common questions

What's the difference between MPEG and MP4?

MPEG (with the .mpeg or .mpg extension) usually means MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 video — older standards used for VCDs, DVDs and TV broadcast. MP4 is a more modern container that typically carries H.264 video, with far better compression. Converting an MPEG to MP4 modernises the file and usually shrinks it significantly.

Will the file get smaller?

Usually, yes — often substantially. MPEG-1/2 is much less efficient than H.264, so re-encoding to MP4 at the same visual quality commonly cuts the file size by half or more.

Does .mpg work too?

Yes. Both .mpeg and .mpg are accepted — they're the same format with two common extensions. Drop either one in and choose MP4 as the output.

Is there a file size limit?

Free users can convert MPEG files up to 25 MB without an account, or up to 10 conversions per day with a free account. Pro users get 500 MB per file and 3,000 credits a month. Business users get up to 5 GB.
