Convert 3GP to WEBM

Converting one file format to another may be necessary for various reasons. So, for example, you may want to convert 3GP to WEBM if your computer, phone or other device does not support 3GP format. Also, conversion is often required to reduce the file size, since the original format takes up too much space in the device's memory. Perhaps you just need to extract the audio track from the video file, in which case converting the video to audio format is a good option. In any case, with the help of our converter, you can easily complete the required task. Below you can find out some details about the original and new file formats.

The 3GP file contains multimedia data in an audio and video container format developed by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) consortium for mobile telephony. It is used to transfer audio and video over the Internet, as well as save videos captured on a mobile device. The finished video clips in 3GP have a small size compared to similar videos in other formats, however, this is justified by a rather low quality, for example, often many frames are presented in the form of colored squares. This format is used to play videos, most often on mobile phones. Its peculiarity lies in the size of the files being played - it is much smaller than, for example, avi. The disadvantage of 3GP is quality, but it is ideal for playing on mobile phones. A 3gp file is a small footage created for playback on portable devices (phones, smartphones, tablets, etc.).

A WEBM file is a compressed video saved in the WebM format, an open high quality video standard. It stores video compressed using VP8 technology and compressed audio using Ogg Vorbis compression. WEBM files are commonly used to deliver online video using HTML5. A WEBM file is a video in the open WebM format, which is widely used to broadcast videos over the Internet, including YouTube. The format complies with the HTML5 standard and is a container in which compressed video and audio streams are packed. The WebM file container contains a video stream compressed using the VP8 or VP9 codecs, an audio stream compressed with the Vorbis or Opus codec, and subtitles such as WebVTT may also be present. In fact, the structure of the WebM file repeats the Matroska media container, only in a very truncated form regarding the variety of formats and codecs used in MKV. The file with the WEBM extension is an innovative video presentation format that was released in 2010. The copyright holder of this extension is Google. Native WebM support in Mozilla Firefox, Opera and Google Chrome was announced at the 2010 Google I / O conference. But high video quality and low file weight have already earned him a solid reputation. The format was supported in HTML5 and was originally intended for placement on web pages.
