How it works

Three steps. No upload, no signup.

  1. 1

    Drop your file

    Click the dropzone above or drag a MPEG from your desktop. Files of any size, there's no upload, so there's no upload limit.

  2. 2

    Convert in your browser

    The conversion runs entirely in this tab using JavaScript and WebAssembly. Your file never touches our servers, we don't have any.

  3. 3

    Download

    Get your MP4 the moment the conversion finishes. Convert another, or close the tab.

Files stay on your device

Your file is never uploaded. The entire conversion runs in your browser using WebAssembly. We can't see what you convert because we have no server to see it.

No file size limit

Server converters cap free users at 1-2 GB and gate larger files behind a paid plan. Since nothing uploads, our limit is whatever your browser can handle.

Free, no signup, no ads on conversions

No account required. No watermark on the output. No queue. Drop a file, get a converted file.

Why convert MPEG → MP4

What this conversion is actually for

The .mpeg extension is the same container as .mpg; people just write the filename differently. Same re-encode path: H.264 video + AAC audio in an MP4 wrapper, universal playback, no legacy codecs.

A real example

A capture card saved a clip as .mpeg and your editor rejects the extension. Convert to MP4 and the editor accepts it immediately.

Troubleshooting

Is this different from mpg-to-mp4?

Only the file extension. The container, the FFmpeg path, and the output are identical. We ship both routes so the file picker and the search-result page match what you actually have.

About MPEG and MP4

MPEG, MPEG

MPEG is a file format we support converting. Detailed format information is being added, for now, drop your file in the converter above and you'll get the conversion you came for.

How to open

Most operating systems open this format with a default application; if not, search for a free reader/viewer for the format.

MP4, MPEG-4 Part 14

MP4 is the dominant video container on the web, H.264 video plus AAC audio, in a structure designed for streaming. Every browser, mobile device, smart TV, and editing tool reads MP4. The format is technically a container (not a codec), so two MP4 files can have very different internal codecs, but the H.264+AAC default is what enables universal playback.

How to open

Every video player on the planet, VLC, QuickTime, Windows Media Player, browsers (HTML5 video), iOS, Android, smart TVs, game consoles. Universal.

FAQ

Common questions

Is this MPEG → MP4 converter really free?

Yes. No signup, no watermark, no daily file count limit. Every conversion runs in your browser, your file never touches our servers because there are no servers.

Where does my file go when I convert it?

Nowhere. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript and WebAssembly. Your file is never uploaded to our servers. We don't have any servers handling files, there's nothing for us to log, store, or accidentally leak.

What's the maximum file size?

Whatever your browser can hold in memory. Practically, this means a few hundred MB on most computers, significantly larger than the 1-2 GB caps that server-upload converters charge for. Very large files (multi-GB) may require closing other browser tabs first.

Why convert MPEG to MP4?

File interchange. Web video, mobile video recording, video sharing. The most common reason to convert is compatibility, MP4 works in places where MPEG doesn't, or vice versa.

How do I open a MPEG file in the first place?

Most operating systems open this format with a default application; if not, search for a free reader/viewer for the format.

Does this work offline?

Once the page is loaded, the conversion itself runs entirely offline. The first time you use a tool, your browser downloads the conversion library (a one-time cache). If you reload while offline, the page won't load, but you can install the site as a Progressive Web App for full offline use.

Can I convert multiple files at once?

Single file at a time for now. Batch conversion is on the roadmap, for now, drop one file, download the result, then convert the next.
