Why convert WMV to MOV?

Convert a WMV recording to MOV for an editor that requires MOV files. The output uses H.264 video.

  • Why leave WMV. Macs, phones and many upload forms do not handle WMV.
  • Why use MOV. MOV suits footage from iPhones, Mac editing, and QuickTime workflows.
  • What you get. The MOV output uses H.264 video and AAC audio. It is not a ProRes or uncompressed editing master. Keep the original. The converted file can differ in size and metadata, and some apps may still not play it.
  • Qualité. Converting WMV to MOV compresses the picture again, which can lower its quality a little. It never adds resolution or detail the WMV did not have.
  • Your rights. Convert only files you own or have permission to use.
