About the MP4 to WAV
MP4 is the standard video format of phones, cameras, YouTube downloads and screen recorders. Its soundtrack is usually AAC audio. WAV is uncompressed audio: perfect quality but around 10 MB per minute, which makes it awkward to email or upload.
FileStripe decodes your MP4 file with your browser's built-in decoder and encodes WAV on your device. Your files are never uploaded, so it is quick even for long recordings.
