Flippy turns M4A into WMV for free: upload the M4A above and download it wrapped as WMV, sound untouched.

It sounds backwards, but M4A to WMV is a real need: plenty of platforms and tools only accept video, so Flippy re-packs your M4A audio inside a WMV wrapper. Nothing is re-recorded: the sound in your M4A crosses over untouched, and the WMV that comes out is built for old Windows archives and PowerPoint decks that still insist on it.

Why flip M4A to WMV

M4A is AAC in Apple's favorite outfit: the audio-only MP4 your iPhone speaks natively. It was born in 2003, popularized by Apple's iTunes Store, and its real weak spot is older Windows software and stubborn car stereos that expect a .mp3.

WMV is a time capsule from the Windows XP years: tidy little files with dated manners. Windows Media Video, usually inside an ASF container; once the backbone of DRM movie rentals. That makes it the right destination when what you need is old Windows archives and PowerPoint decks that still insist on it.

Questions people ask

Will converting M4A to WMV lose quality?

No. Wrapping audio in a WMV container doesn't touch the sound itself: it's the same stream in a different box.

Will the WMV file be bigger or smaller than my M4A?

About the same, plus a sliver of container overhead. The audio stream is unchanged; WMV just adds a video-shaped envelope.

Where will the WMV file play?

Windows out of the box; everywhere else wants VLC or a converter. That's the usual reason people leave M4A behind: WMV simply opens in more of the places that matter.

How long does M4A to WMV conversion take?

It scales with length and resolution: short clips finish in seconds, long HD videos can take a few minutes. Files auto-delete within an hour after.
