Technical Quality Assessment
Xonvert preserves embedded metadata (EXIF, XMP, ID3 tags, etc.) whenever the M4V Video format supports it. Format-exclusive metadata fields that have no equivalent in M4V Video are gracefully omitted without affecting the converted content. Quality in this conversion depends primarily on your source file. A high-quality Opus Audio input produces an excellent M4V Video output. Xonvert defaults to high quality settings that keep file size reasonable without compromising perceivable quality. Opus Audio encodes data using perceptual compression that prioritizes human perception. M4V Video similarly focuses on perceptual quality. The conversion maps between these approaches intelligently.
