H.264 MOV: no loss of quality
A MOV with H.264 video — the iPhone’s Most Compatible setting, QuickTime screen recordings and many cameras — is copied into the MP4 without re-encoding. It is quick, and the picture is exactly the same.
iPhone HEVC and ProRes
The iPhone’s High Efficiency setting records HEVC (H.265), which many Windows PCs and older Android phones can’t play. BasePic re-encodes HEVC, ProRes and other formats to H.264 at good quality, with the same size in pixels. Re-encoding works on videos up to 15 minutes long at 1080p or 4K, up to 33 minutes at 720p, 1 hour 15 minutes at 480p and 2 hours at 360p or smaller.
Sound that plays everywhere
When the picture is copied, AAC and MP3 sound is copied with it. Otherwise, and for other sound such as uncompressed PCM, the sound becomes AAC.
Your link and your original
The MP4 is a new file with a Short link and a Long link, ready to share or download. The MOV you uploaded keeps its own link.
MOV to MP4: questions
How do I convert a MOV to MP4?
Upload the MOV and tap Convert to MP4. The MP4 gets its own link and a Download button.
Will the quality change?
Not for a MOV with H.264 video — it is copied as it is. HEVC, ProRes and other formats are re-encoded to H.264 at good quality.
Does it work on iPhone and Mac?
Yes. In Safari, tap Upload video and pick the video from Photos or Files.
How long can the video be?
Up to 2 GB. A MOV with H.264 video is copied quickly; one that needs re-encoding can be up to 15 minutes long at 1080p or 4K, 33 minutes at 720p, 1 hour 15 minutes at 480p and 2 hours at 360p — trim a longer one first.
Is it free?
Yes. No sign-up and no watermark.
