Convert HEIC to MPEG
What is HEIC?
HEIC
HEIC stores single images using HEVC compression. Video requires sequential frames at standard rates. Converting HEIC to video means creating still-frame video (static image for duration) or using the image as video assets—thumbnails, posters, or overlays within editing software that handles frame sequences.
- HEIC stores static single-frame images, requiring frame sequencing for video creation
- Modern format—requires up-to-date software for compatibility
- Single static frame—video requires frame duplication or sequencing
What is MPEG?
MPEG
MPEG video contains thousands of compressed frames per minute. Image formats are single static frames. Extracting images from MPEG means selecting specific frames—keyframes for quality, or any frame for specific moments.
- MPEG stores sequential frames at 24-60fps, enabling frame extraction as images
- Frame rate (24-60fps) means hundreds of images extractable per second
- Each frame at video resolution (720p-4K) becomes individual HEIC image

Frequently Asked Questions
How many .heic files can I convert at once?
Free users: 3 .heic files per batch. Premium users: 20 .heic files per batch with ZIP download. Each .heic file converts independently to .mpeg, maintaining original quality and filenames.
Where do you store my HEIC files?
We don't store HEIC files. EU servers (Austria) process MPEG conversions then immediately delete data. Files exist only during conversion—5 minutes maximum, often deleted within seconds.
What's the maximum file size for HEIC to MPEG?
Free tier: 100MB per HEIC file. Premium: 500MB per HEIC file. For larger HEIC files, consider compression before conversion or upgrade to Premium for extended MPEG conversion capacity.
How long does HEIC to MPEG conversion take?
HEIC to MPEG video conversion takes longer due to frame processing. Small HEIC files (under 50MB, ~2-3 minutes) convert in 30-90 seconds. Larger videos require proportionally more time—expect 1-3 minutes for typical files.
Do I need to install any software?
No! Everything works directly in your web browser. No downloads, no installations, no plugins required. Just upload your file and convert. Works on Windows, Mac, Linux, and mobile devices.
