AC3 to MP4 Conversion FAQ
Is the AC3 to MP4 converter free?
+
Yes. One conversion an hour is free, with no account needed, for a file within the free size limit. A paid plan removes the hourly limit and the size limit, and lets you add several files to one job.
Will the MP4 open directly in a browser?
+
Yes, and the AC3 would not have. Browsers ship a decoder for MP4 and none for AC3, so an AC3 link forces a download while an MP4 renders inline. That is usually the deciding factor when the file is going onto a web page rather than into an application. MP4 is the safest possible delivery target — every phone, browser, console, editor and Smart TV built in the last decade plays it without extra software.
How big an AC3 file can I convert to MP4?
+
Free conversions have a size limit per file, set by the type of file, and the page tells you when a file is over it. A paid plan removes that limit, so much larger files can be converted.
Can I convert many AC3 files to MP4 at once?
+
Several files in one job need a paid plan. Free use is one file per conversion, one conversion an hour. On a paid plan you can add several files to one job, then download each result on its own or all of them in one ZIP.
Does the AC3 to MP4 converter work on phones / tablets?
+
Yes — the UI is responsive and the conversion pipeline runs server-side, so mobile devices upload-then-download just like desktops. iOS and Android browser file pickers (camera roll, Files app) work end-to-end without an app.
Which browsers does the AC3 to MP4 converter support?
+
Chrome, Firefox, Safari (15+), Edge, and Opera. The converter uses a plain `<input type="file">` upload — no WebAssembly or PWA dependencies — so even older browsers convert AC3 to MP4 successfully.
Are my AC3 files kept private?
+
Yes. Uploaded AC3 files are processed on our own conversion servers, no person reviews them, and they are never shared. The upload and the converted MP4 are both deleted automatically about 24 hours after the conversion, which leaves time to download the result. See /privacy/ for the full policy. AC-3 is the surround track every AV receiver, DVD player and TV decodes natively, which is why it is still the broadcast baseline.
What if the MP4 download does not start automatically?
+
Disable any pop-up blocker, then click the download button manually. The result link stays active for 24 hours, so if your network fails mid-download you can re-trigger from the result page without re-uploading the AC3.
How long does AC3 to MP4 conversion take?
+
It depends on the size and length of the file. Small documents and images are usually ready quickly. Long videos take the longest, because most video conversions re-encode every frame. MP4 only supports one widely-honoured subtitle format (mov_text), and multi-track audio is unreliable outside desktop players.
Do I need to install software to convert AC3 to MP4?
+
No — the converter runs entirely in your browser plus our servers. No desktop install, no plugin, no extension. Just upload your AC3, wait, download the MP4.
