Convert M4A to M4V
What is M4A?
M4A
M4A is audio-only container without video streams. Video requires visual frame sequences. M4A lacks video data—creating video from M4A audio requires adding visual elements like static images, album artwork, waveform animations, or lyric displays. This requires video editing software combining audio with generated or imported visuals.
- M4A contains pure audio data requiring video track addition for video output
What is M4V?
M4V
M4V containers hold video (H.264) and audio (AAC) streams, similar to MP4 but with optional Apple DRM. Extracting audio means demultiplexing—isolating the AAC audio track from the video stream. This preserves audio quality when extracting to compatible formats.
- M4V combines video and audio streams in a container, allowing audio track extraction
- Contains separate audio track easily extracted to M4A format
- Video stream discarded—only audio codec and bitrate matter
