Easy — just pick a size, we optimize the rest. Advanced — full control.

Format

GIF — silent, loops, universal. MP4 keeps the audio & is far smaller. MP3 — audio only.

Trim
selection 0.0s

Drag the timeline handles, or type In / Out.

Output size 10 MBMB

We pick the best width / fps / quality to fit.

Crop & frame
Scale ×

Aspect = output shape. Fill covers the frame; Fit shows the whole clip with bars. Scale & Align position the video; Frame color fills empty areas.

Rotate 0°°

Drag the dial for fine rotation; 90° / Reset for quarter-turns.

Frame rate 12 fpsfps

Frames per second. Higher = smoother but heavier; capped at the source rate.

Speed %

Play faster or slower (25–400%). Slower = more frames, bigger file.

Width 480 pxpx

Output width in pixels (height follows the frame).

Resolution 720p

Output resolution — the short side (so 1080p → 1920×1080 landscape or 1080×1920 vertical). Capped at the source — no upscaling.

Bitrate Mbps

Video bitrate (Mbps): higher = sharper, bigger.

Quality

Per-frame color accuracy: Draft → Good → Best.

Audio bitrate

kbps — higher = better sound, bigger file. 192 is a solid default.

Caption

Bold meme-style text, baked into the export.

Auto-tune width & fps (GIF) or bitrate (MP4) to fit a target — handy for Discord/email limits.

Convert any video to MP4

MP4 (H.264 with AAC sound) plays everywhere — phones, browsers, social apps, editors. GifLab converts almost any video into MP4 on your own computer: MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV, AVI, WMV, FLV, MPEG and ProRes.

You can trim, crop, rotate, resize, change speed or mute it on the way. Hardware encoding keeps it fast, and nothing is uploaded.

How to convert a video to MP4

  1. Drop the video file.
  2. Trim or adjust it if you like.
  3. Pick a resolution and bitrate (or leave Auto).
  4. Export the MP4.

Questions

Which formats can I convert?

MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV, AVI, WMV, FLV, MPEG and ProRes. Some rare codecs (for example Windows Media Video 9) aren't supported.

Will it keep the sound?

Yes, audio is kept as AAC unless you choose Mute.

Is the quality reduced?

You choose the bitrate. Auto picks a high-quality default that never exceeds the source.
