HOW IT WORKS
Three steps, no account, nothing to install.
01
Upload your WebM files
Drag in .webm videos from a browser download, screen recorder or web app.
02
Convert to AMV
Start the conversion. VP8, VP9 or AV1 video is scaled to 320x240 at 15 fps, and Opus or Vorbis sound is mixed to mono.
03
Download the AMV
Download each AMV and copy it to the player's video folder.
WEBM
WebM is Google's open web video format with VP8, VP9 or AV1 video and Opus or Vorbis sound.
AMV
AMV is a low-resolution video format made for cheap MP3/MP4 players built on Actions Semiconductor chips.
FILE FORMATS
SOURCE
Google launched WebM in 2010 as a royalty-free format for HTML5 video. It is a restricted form of Matroska that only allows VP8, VP9 or AV1 video and Vorbis or Opus audio. Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Android play it, screen recorders and browser tools often save it, and older devices may not.
TARGET
AMV is a stripped-down variant of AVI created for budget portable players, the kind often sold as MP4 players. It uses a simplified Motion JPEG for the picture and IMA ADPCM for sound, so tiny chips can decode it. Resolution and frame rate are low, typically 160x120 to 320x240 at 12 to 16 fps.

Mixed to mono IMA ADPCM at 22.05 kHz.
Kept in proportion, with black bars at the sides.
Gets a silent track, because AMV players need one.
Upload many WebMs and download the AMVs as a ZIP.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Budget players are fussy, so check these first.
01
Some players only take smaller AMV sizes such as 160x120. Check the manual for your player's supported size.
02
Copy it into the player's VIDEO folder and keep the file name short.
03
The picture keeps its proportions inside 320x240, so tall video gets wide bars.
04
AMV uses mono sound, so stereo is mixed down.
05
320x240 at 15 fps is the format's fixed size. That is normal on these players.
06
Try one short clip. If the player still refuses it, it may need the maker's own AMV variant.
Budget MP4 players came with their own Windows converter on a mini CD or a download page. dragdropdo turns WEBM into AMV in the browser, so you don't need to find that old program.
