FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

No — conversion kicks off automatically once the file lands in the tool. If nothing happens, the upload probably didn't take: click the upload area and pick the file directly instead of dragging it.

Neither. The converter is free and there's no signup. It also runs on your own device in the browser, so your video isn't uploaded to a server.

No install needed — the converter lives on the Zight site under Resources, then Tools. Zight does have Mac, Windows, and Chrome apps, but this tool runs entirely in your browser.
