MPG to MOV — No Upload, No Watermark

Why convert MPG to MOV?

Re-wrapping MPG footage as MOV is what makes it playable and editable outside the device or era it came from, without re-shooting anything. MOV (QuickTime movie) earns its place here: first-class quality and metadata support across macOS, iOS and professional Apple editing tools. MPG is the classic MPEG program-stream container from the DVD and camcorder era. Files are big by today's standards, yet virtually no player refuses them.

When MPG → MOV is the right move

An editor, phone or TV plays MOV smoothly but stutters on MPG — or refuses it outright.
You are uploading somewhere that lists MOV as a supported format and MPG as unsupported.
Old MPG footage needs to become something you can still open in five years.

Quality, size and what changes

Picture and sound are re-encoded into the MOV container at a bitrate chosen to keep the result visually close to the MPG source. Resolution, frame rate and duration are preserved; file size usually changes noticeably because MPG and MOV lean on different codecs. Multiple audio tracks or chapter data may not carry over.

What you gain with MOV: First-class quality and metadata support across macOS, iOS and professional Apple editing tools.

How it works

Drop your MPG file above and Morphio decodes it locally, then re-encodes it as MOV using WebAssembly + the browser's native codecs. Nothing is ever uploaded — your files stay on your device. Batch as many files as your machine can handle. See exactly how in-browser conversion works.

MPG to MOV — frequently asked questions

How do I convert MPG to MOV without uploading the file?

Open the MPG to MOV page, drop your video on the drop zone and press convert. Morphio runs an FFmpeg build compiled to WebAssembly that runs inside the page, so the MPG data never leaves your device and no server ever receives a copy.

Does converting MPG to MOV lose quality?

Audio and video tracks are re-encoded together, so the result stays in sync and plays on standard players. Converting MPG to MOV only rewrites the container and encoding you asked for — the source file on your disk is never modified.

Is the MPG to MOV converter free, and how big can the file be?

Yes. The free plan covers 10 conversions a day with files up to 200 MB and adds no watermark or sign-up. Morphio Pro ($5/month, or $29 once for lifetime access) removes the daily cap and raises the per-file limit to 5 GB.

Does converting MPG to MOV lose quality?

Morphio decodes the MPG file at full fidelity and re-encodes it at a high-quality MOV setting, so the difference is normally invisible or inaudible. What conversion cannot do is recover detail the original MPG file already threw away.

Can I convert several MPG files to MOV at once?

Yes — drop the whole batch in and each file is processed in turn on your own machine. The practical limit is your device's memory and patience, not a server quota, because nothing is queued anywhere else.

Are my MPG files uploaded anywhere?

No. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so the file never leaves your device — you can disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it still works.
