How to convert AVI to MP4

  1. Drop the video.
  2. Nothing to choose.
  3. Press Convert and download the MP4.

What happens to your file

The video is decoded and re-encoded as H.264 with AAC sound in a fast-start MP4 — the one file phones, TVs, Windows, Macs and every browser play — at a quality most people cannot tell from the original.

AVI often holds DivX or Xvid at large sizes; the MP4 is typically a fraction of the bytes at the same look.

Questions

Will the quality drop?

The picture is re-encoded once at a quality most people cannot distinguish; an AVI is usually already compressed, so nothing sharp is lost.

Do this in code

curl -X POST https://api.fylane.dev/v1/jobs \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $FYLANE_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "file_id": "<file id>",
    "operation": "video.convert",
    "options": {}
  }'

The same operation, video.convert — Anything playable becomes H.264+AAC in a faststart MP4 — or, by `container`, MOV, MKV, or VP9+Opus WebM. Upload first with the quickstart; every option is on the operations page. 500 free credits a month, then $5 per thousand.
