Format description
MP4 (short for MPEG-4 Part 14) files store multimedia - video, audio and subtitles. Websites frequently use them for displaying videos because the MP4 format is universally supported. However, newer video formats, such as WebM, produce smaller file sizes with almost no quality loss. Therefore, you can free up storage by converting your videos to WebM.
Common questions about converting M4A to MP4
Will the video be black?
If the M4A has no embedded album cover, then the video will be a just black background. If your M4A contains album art, the MP4 video will display it throughout the whole duration.
Can the MP4 be uploaded to YouTube without a "Processing abandoned" error?
Yes, your converted videos can be uploaded to YouTube successfully. Still, keep in mind that music copyright laws may have an impact on your uploads.
Can I convert M4A to MP4 in bulk?
Yes, MConverter supports batch converting of multiple M4As to MP4's simultaneously. You can even drag and drop folders containing M4As to convert to MP4. Pasting M4A files and folders copied in the clipboard also works: use Ctrl+V.
Can I convert an M4A file to MP4, if its size is 2 GB?
Yes, with MConverter Pro you can convert big M4As, up to 2 gigabytes each. The free version lets you convert files up to 100 MB. If you need to convert M4A files over 100 megabytes, try MConverter Pro. If your files aren’t over 1 GB, then you can use MConverter Plus instead, as it’s cheaper.

Plus, your M4A files are only accessible by you. 4 hours after the conversion completes, they are automatically deleted from MConverter’s servers.
