MOV to M4A: Extract Audio from MOV(QuickTime Movie) Video to M4A(MPEG-4 Audio) with River Past Audio Converter, MOV2M4A converter, conversion


What is MOV?

Quicktime is a multimedia development, storage, and playback technology from Apple. Quicktime files combine sound, text, animation, and video in a single file. Using a Quicktime player that either comes with a Web browser or can be downloaded from Apple or the browser company, you can view and control brief multimedia sequences.

As a multimedia stardand, QuickTime is not purely linear. It could contain interactivity and causes problems when converting to other video formats.

A lot of digital cameras record video in QuickTime support.

More information can be found on Apple's QuickTime page.

Please install Apple QuickTime when you want to convert from QuickTime movies.


What is M4A?

Because of its exceptional performance and quality, Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) is at the core of the MPEG-4, 3GPP and 3GPP2 specifications and is the audio codec of choice for Internet, wireless and digital broadcast arenas. AAC provides audio encoding that compresses much more efficiently than older formats, such as MP3, yet delivers quality rivaling that of uncompressed CD audio.

To encode MPEG-4 audio, you need to have River Past MPEG-4 Booster Pack in addition to your audio software.
