What changes from MKV to MP4
MP4 output
MP4 is the broad-compatibility delivery choice for browsers, forms and everyday playback.
Codec and compatibility
It uses H.264 video and AAC audio in this extension.
Audio
AAC audio is widely supported across current players.
Simplify an archive for one-player playback
MKV often carries several audio tracks, subtitles, chapters or attachments. Choose the audio track you need and create a simpler MP4 for TVs, presentations, forms and mainstream players.
Extra MKV tracks need a decision
Embedded subtitles, chapter markers, fonts and secondary audio are not automatically preserved in the MP4 result. Confirm the chosen language and inspect the new file before discarding any archive workflow.
Limitations
- Input decoding and output encoding depend on the source codec, Chrome version and device capabilities.
- Changing the container normally re-encodes the video; it is not a lossless filename change.
- The result can be larger or smaller depending on duration, motion, audio, resolution and codec efficiency.
Frequently asked questions
Does renaming .mkv to .mp4 convert the file?
No. The source must be decoded and a real output container must be created.
Is the video uploaded?
No. The selected video is processed locally in Chrome.
Is the original changed?
No. The extension creates a separate output and leaves the original untouched.
