How to convert DIVX to M4V
- Add your .DIVX file - drop it in the box above or click to browse.
- Convert it to .M4V in a few seconds.
- Download your new .M4V file.
What to expect
- MPEG-4 ASP video is re-encoded to H.264 for M4V (a lossy step); an existing H.264 stream may be repackaged with minimal quality change.
- Embedded subtitles and chapter markers from the DivX file often do not survive the conversion to the MP4-based M4V container.
- The output is a plain, DRM-free M4V that behaves the same as an MP4 in most players.
Frequently asked questions
Does converting DivX to M4V reduce quality?
M4V is an MP4-based container that normally holds H.264. A DivX H.264 stream can sometimes be repackaged with little loss, but MPEG-4 ASP video is re-encoded to H.264, which is lossy; at a good bitrate the result looks close to the original.
Why convert DivX to M4V?
M4V is Apple's video format for iTunes, the Apple TV app, and Apple devices, so converting gives you a file that fits neatly into an Apple-centric library and plays without extra codecs.
Where does an M4V file open?
A non-DRM M4V opens in VLC, QuickTime, and Windows Media Player, and across iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple TV. The output here carries no DRM, since that is applied only to store purchases.
What is lost when moving from DivX to M4V?
DivX chapters and embedded subtitle tracks may not carry over, and the MP4/M4V container handles far fewer subtitle formats than DivX's AVI base. Multiple audio tracks can usually be kept.
