Uploading various file types that are not natively playable in the browser will trigger a conversion on upload. Video file types like FLV, WEBM, and AVI don't always play correctly on all devices, and with Kapwing these files can be easily converted to a more widely accessible container format like MP4.
When sharing your content, you want to make sure your files are in a format that is universally accepted and reliable. Once you have made your selection, simply press the Export button at the bottom to create your newly converted video. The options are MP3 for saving the audio from videos with music, JPEG for saving a specific screenshot image from the video, GIF for short animated images clipped from the video, and MP4 for converting MOV, FLV, AVI, and other video files, or saving videos from the web straight to your files. Then, a new sidebar will pop out that will list your export options. When your video is uploaded to Kapwing, you can make any edits to your video, or you can go straight to conversion by clicking Export Project on the right sidebar.
