About MKV and WebM

Matroska is a flexible container; MP4 is narrower but far more widely supported.

WebM uses VP8/VP9 and Opus, and is natively supported by browsers.

MKV files are read by the convertexa engine that ships with this page, so the conversion is identical whether you use this tool or the general converter. The output is produced with the same codec settings for every visitor, which means the same input always produces the same result.

Limitations

  • Re-encoding a lossy source cannot restore the quality that was lost when it was first encoded.
  • WebM output uses VP8 video and Opus audio; the VP9 encoder is not available in the single-threaded WebAssembly build.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert a MKV file to WebM?

Add your MKV file to the box above. convertexa detects the format from the file content, applies the MKV to WebM conversion and gives you the result to download. The whole operation runs inside your browser.

Are my MKV files uploaded anywhere?

No. The conversion runs in a sandboxed worker on your own device. Your file never leaves the browser, and nothing is stored on a server.

Is the MKV to WebM conversion lossless?

No. WebM is a re-encoded format, so some data is discarded to reach the target format. Matroska is a flexible container; MP4 is narrower but far more widely supported.

Is there a size limit?

For reliable results keep the input under 300 MB. Very large files run out of memory in the browser rather than failing quietly.

Which browsers are supported?

Any current version of Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari on a desktop. The conversion engines need WebAssembly and Web Workers, both of which are standard since 2018.
