How to convert WebM to OPUS

  1. Add your WebM videos

    Drop WebM files onto the box above, or click it to choose them. ToAny reads the file's contents to detect the type, so a wrong extension does not matter.

  2. OPUS is already chosen

    Press Convert. Open Options first if you want to change the defaults. The work happens in this tab and can take a while for large files.

  3. Download

    Save the OPUS, or download everything as one ZIP if you converted several files.

WebM to OPUS: what to expect

WebM does not play on many phones, TVs or in most video editors. Opus sounds better than MP3 or AAC at low bitrates. WebM is at home in royalty-free video on websites; OPUS is the usual choice for voice and music at low bitrates. The OPUS contains the soundtrack only; the picture is dropped.

The defaults suit most files. Under Options you can choose the bitrate and trim the start and end. This is demanding work for a browser: a long or high-resolution file can take several minutes, and your device does all of it, so keep the tab open.

The conversion uses your browser's own video and audio codecs (WebCodecs), with hardware acceleration where the device has it; the file is read from disk as it goes and can be up to 2 GB. Where the browser lacks a codec, the page falls back to the compatibility engine. OPUS is written at 128 kbps unless you choose another bitrate.

WebM vs OPUS

WEBM

WebM video

WebM is an open, royalty-free video format built for the web. It is a restricted form of Matroska holding VP8, VP9 or AV1 video. Browsers play it; iPhones, TVs and video editors often do not.

Questions

Are my videos uploaded anywhere?

No. The WebM to OPUS conversion runs inside your browser, on your own phone or computer. The file is not sent to ToAny or to anyone else.

Does converting WebM to OPUS reduce quality?

The soundtrack is re-encoded as OPUS. OPUS is lossy, but at a normal bitrate the difference is hard to hear. You can choose the bitrate under Options.

Can I convert several WebM files at once?

Yes. Add as many as you like, convert them together and download each result or all of them as one ZIP.

How do I convert WebM to OPUS on Windows, Mac, iPhone or Android?

The steps are the same everywhere because ToAny runs in the web browser: open this page in a current version of Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox, add the WebM file, press Convert and save the OPUS. There is nothing to install.

Is there a file size limit?

Yes. Files up to 2 GB are accepted. Beyond that the limit is your device's memory, since nothing is uploaded; a computer copes with large files better than a phone.
