Convert MOV to FLAC on your device. Extract audio without uploading the video.

Processed on your device - nothing is uploaded.
HOW IT WORKS
1
Drop the mov video
Drag the MOV file in. Your browser reads it locally - its contents stay on your device.
2
Pick FLAC
The audio track is extracted and encoded as FLAC right here.
3
Download the audio
Your FLAC saves to your device, ready for any player.
Why convert here, not there
No upload, ever
A private mov video stays private - the audio is pulled out on your device.
Local conversion
Even a long mov starts converting the moment you drop it. No upload first.
No account, no daily cap
Extract flac audio from as many clips as you like. Nobody is counting.
The two formats, briefly
| MOV | MOV is a container used by cameras and editing software. The codecs inside it determine how it can be decoded and played. | |
|---|---|---|
| FLAC | FLAC uses lossless audio compression. Encoding decoded audio as FLAC does not restore detail already lost in a source recording. | |
When you need this
- Extract the soundtrack from a MOV video for an audio-only workflow that accepts FLAC. This does not keep the picture. A video with no audio track cannot produce meaningful audio.
MOV vs FLAC: what changes
| MOV | FLAC | |
|---|---|---|
| Kind | Video | Audio |
| Compression | Depends on source encoding | Lossless audio compression |
| Typical size | Depends on the file and encoding settings. | Measure the exported file; it may be larger. |
| Opens on | Check the source in your app and browser. | Check the downloaded file in the receiving app. |
| Best for | Keep the original as your source. | FLAC workflows, subject to the limits below. |
Keep the original. Compare the exported file before sharing or replacing it.
Good to know
- FLAC uses lossless compression of decoded audio. There is no bitrate choice, and lossy source detail cannot be recovered.
- First use downloads the audio/video engine (about 30 MB). The input cap is 2 GB, but available browser memory can run out below that.
MOV to FLAC, answered
Why convert MOV to FLAC?+
Extract the soundtrack from a MOV video for an audio-only workflow that accepts FLAC. This does not keep the picture. A video with no audio track cannot produce meaningful audio.
Which quality should I pick?+
FLAC uses lossless compression of decoded audio. There is no bitrate choice, and lossy source detail cannot be recovered.
Does converting MOV to FLAC lose quality?+
FLAC losslessly encodes decoded audio, but decoding and supported sample precision still matter. It cannot restore missing detail, preserve the video picture, or promise every source track and metadata field survives.
Is there a file size limit?+
The hard cap is 2 GB per file. The practical limit is your device: conversion runs in its memory, so very large files can fail on phones with little free RAM. There is no server-side cap because nothing is uploaded.
Does my file get uploaded anywhere?+
No. EverywhereTrade has no server that receives files - the conversion code downloads once and runs entirely in this tab.
