Convert to
Flexible container — often an instant, lossless repack

🔒 Files never leave your device — everything runs in your browser.

MKV is the container serious media collections standardize on: it holds nearly any codec, carries chapters and multiple tracks, and plays in the players enthusiasts actually use — VLC, Plex, Kodi, mpv. Moving an MP4 into MKV brings it in line with a library built on that standard.

Because MKV happily carries MP4's H.264 and AAC as-is, this conversion is a pure repack: the streams are copied bit-for-bit into the new container in seconds, with zero re-encoding and zero quality loss — even for large files. Everything happens in your browser; nothing uploads.

How it works

  1. Drop your file

    Any common format, any size. Nothing is uploaded — the tool runs in your browser.

  2. Convert

    Compatible files are repackaged instantly with zero quality loss; others are hardware-transcoded at high quality.

  3. Download

    Your converted file is ready on your device — nothing to wait for, nothing to delete from a server.

Frequently asked questions

Is MP4 to MKV really lossless?

For the common codecs, yes — H.264, HEVC, VP9 video and AAC or MP3 audio all copy into MKV unchanged, and the result panel confirms when the copy happened. Unusual audio codecs are re-encoded at high quality instead.

Why do media libraries prefer MKV over MP4?

Flexibility — MKV carries any codec, multiple audio and subtitle tracks, and chapters, without MP4's format restrictions. For a curated library played through VLC, Plex, or Kodi, that headroom matters.

Will the MKV play on my TV or phone?

Many modern TVs and Android players handle MKV; iPhones and some smart TVs do not without a player app. MP4 remains the compatibility king — MKV is the choice when your playback stack is built for it.

Is my file uploaded to a server?

No. ConvertUno runs entirely in your browser on your own device. Your file never leaves your computer or phone — there is no upload at all.

Is it really free, with no watermark?

Yes. Processing happens on your device, so serving you costs us almost nothing — no watermark, no account, no file-size limit, no daily quota.
