Part 1 Easy Steps on Convert MP3 into MP4

For the first part of this article, we’ll be covering how to use a free MP3 to MP4 converter in order to successfully change the format of your audio into a video file! There will be two examples given for this, one for the straightforward MP3 into MP4 conversion the other for the more specified MP3 to MOV conversion!

01How to Convert MP3 to MP4?

Step 1: Launch MP3 to MP4 Convert (for Windows)

For our example, we’ll be using the free MP3 to MP4 converter, EaseUS Video Converter! This is open-source software, so you can use it for free!

To start using your chosen free MP3 to MP4 converter, upload the file that you want to convert! For our example converter, it’s as simple as dragging and dropping your chosen MP3 into the interface (as pointed out in the image below.)

Step 2: Choose Output Format!

Once the MP3 file has been uploaded, choose your desired output format.

(For our example MP3 to MP4 converter, this means selecting the settings icon for the file in question and then choosing a format from the pop-up window that appears (shown in the image below).

Step 3: Start Converting!

Once you’ve chosen your desired output format (which in this case is MP3 into MP4), select the “CONVERT” button to finish up!

Step 4: Save MP3 Into MP4

Depending on your chosen free MP3 to MP4 converter, your new MP4 file may have to be downloaded manually or not.

In the case of EaseUS Video Converter, it is downloaded automatically, all you have to do is select the “Finished” tab and select “OPEN” to go directly to the file location.

02How to Convert MP3 to MOV?

We’ve also included how you can convert MP3 to MOV with the same tool! As you will surely see, much of the process is the same. Only one step is really changed!

Step 1: Uploaded MP3 File!

First, just like in the previous section, upload your MP3 file (by dragging and dropping the file onto the MP3 to MOV converter.)

Step 2: Select ‘MOV’ Format!

This is the step where things change, of course! Now, rather than choosing MP4, you should select the “MOV” format for your output type! This will ensure that your MP3 file is converted specifically to a MOV file.

Step 3: Convert!

Again, just like before, select “CONVERT” to start the conversion process from MP3 to MOV!

Step 4: Open Folder to Find File!

Then, finally, go to the “Finished” tab to find your new MOV file.

Part 2 Six Online and Free Mp3 to Mp4 Converter

For this next section, we’re going to introduce a couple of online MP3 to MP4 converters as well other general, paid, and free MP3 to MP4 converters that you can check out. A link to a video showing how the converter works, as well as brief descriptions for each converter, have also been provided to ensure that you have a good idea of how each one works!

01**Wondershare Filmora **

The first of the tools on this list is Filmora! Filmora, first and foremost, is an advanced video editor. Some might say that using it as a tool to simply convert MP3 into MP4 is a little bit of an overkill.

But, chances are, you’re not likely going to want to stop at converting your MP3 into an MP4 file anyway, right? Well, if that’s the case, then having an all-in-one tool on your side that can offer you endless options for all sorts of purposes is one way to ensure that you are starting off on the right foot from the very beginning!

02Zamzar

Zamzar is a Windows 10 app that works as a general conversion tool. It doesn’t just convert MP3 into MP4 or MP3 into MOV — it also does the job if you’re looking for a converter that will work on JPG to PNG or PDF to JPG, etc. That makes it a helpful tool to have on hand just for general conversion purposes.

03Online File Converter

Online File Converter, as you can probably guess from the name, is an online conversion tool! This tool, much like Zamzar, is a heavy-hitter when it comes to conversion inputs and outputs compatibility. So, not only are you able to do the general MP3 into MP4 conversion promised today, but you can do other things as well! Plus, no download or installation is required! All you need is an internet connection to access the website the converter is on and a little patience while you wait to upload, convert, and download the file in question.

04Any Conv

AnyConv is an alternate to the Online File Converter if you’re looking for an online solution, but you don’t like the interface of one or the other. The two are pretty much identical in terms of features. All you need to do in order to use it is to upload the file that you want to convert, choose a format, and then download the output file when you’re done!

05Uniconverter

Uniconverter is an online MP3 to MP4 tool from Wondershare (the same creators of Filmora Pro). It’s a very solid tool. And it’s quite a convenient one too. Since, just like any online converter, all you need to start using it is an internet connection.

06MConverter - Chrome Extension

Our last pick brings us back to unique solutions! Specifically, we’re delving into the realm of Chrome extensions! This tool, the MConverter, works similarly to the other converters on this list. But, of course, in this case, if you want to use it in order to convert your files, you must first download the plug-in to your Chrome browser!

Key Takeaways from This Episode

● Despite the variety of options out there for MP3 into MP4 converters, they all pretty much work the same. First, you upload the file that you want to convert. Second, you select the output format for the conversion. And finally, third, you finish the conversion!

● Most MP3 to MP4 converters work for other formats as well. For example, if you want to convert your MP3 to MOV instead — that’s possible! OR, if you want to do the opposite, and convert MP4 to MP3, that works too!

● The difference between the different audio-to-video converters is usually the type of extra features it comes with as well as from what platform you can use it. For the latter, there are software types that you download and install to your computer, online types that you access through the internet, and extensions that you plug into your browser! Pick the one that works best with your workflow.

Easy Video Tagging on Mac: Discover the 8 Best Metadata Editors

8 Best Video Metadata Editor on Mac (Real and Easy)

Liza Brown

Mar 27, 2024• Proven solutions

Metadata is the pieces of information that help viewers understand what a video is about without having to watch it from start to finish. Things like titles, keywords, tags, timestamps, and descriptions are some metadata that should be added to a video before it is published online.

Adding the right metadata to your video is useful for many reasons. It makes it easy for search engines to correctly identify and index your video. This in turn helps viewers find your video when they search Google, iTunes, or video sharing platforms like YouTube and Vimeo.

For more experienced videographers, metadata is useful at every stage of the process of making a video, from production to post-production and publishing. Without the right metadata, professional video production and editing would be a very uphill task.

The best multimedia editors have metadata editing features. It’s also good to have a lightweight, standalone application to edit and customize video metadata quickly. In this post, we share the 8 best video metadata editors for macOS users.
