How to use the MP4 to AVI converter

  1. Drop the MP4 file.
  2. It is encoded to AVI.
  3. Download the AVI.

What you can convert

Drop in video/mp4. One file at a time keeps the output predictable, and the convert button stays disabled until a file is in place.

The result comes back as an AVI. Converts to lossless AVI.

Why run it in your browser

Most online converters work the same way: you upload a file, it lands on somebody's server, gets written to a temporary folder, and is deleted afterwards. That is fine right up until the day you are converting an unreleased product mockup, a signed contract, or a client's bank statement — because all you get is a promise, not a fact.

This converter never sends your file anywhere. The work happens with JavaScript inside the page you are already looking at, so the bytes never leave your device. That is why there is no upload bar, no "file too large" ceiling, and nothing left behind on a server to delete.

There is no account to create and no watermark to remove. It also keeps working offline once loaded, which matters on a train or a patchy office Wi-Fi. If you are converting the same kind of file constantly, an automated pipeline is the better route — that is what our software solutions are for.

Good to know before you start

AVI is a much older container. It is lossless here, but the resulting file is far larger than the MP4 you started with.

Keep the original file until you have checked the output. If the result is not what you expected, try one of the related tools below rather than converting the same file repeatedly.

Common questions

Why is AVI so large?
AVI in this tool is lossless, so old editors get perfect frames — size grows accordingly.
Is it for playback only?
Ideal for old NLEs and archival; modern players prefer MP4.

Need this inside your own product?

These tools cover one-off jobs. If you need a converter built into your app, a pipeline that handles thousands of files, or a team set up with the right tooling, that is a build job — and we do those.
