What is MOV?

QuickTime Movie (.mov). MOV is Apple's QuickTime container. iPhones record MOV files (with HEVC or H.264 video), and professional cameras and Final Cut Pro use it with codecs like ProRes. Windows apps and websites usually prefer MP4.

Common use: iPhone recordings, Apple editing software, professional cameras

Output format

What is MXF?

Material Exchange Format (.mxf). MXF is the SMPTE-standard container of broadcast and professional cameras, such as Sony XDCAM and Canon cinema cameras. It carries professional codecs and timecode metadata; consumer players rarely open it, so MXF is converted for review copies.

Common use: Broadcast and professional camera footage

Questions about MOV to MXF

Is converting MOV to MXF free?
Yes, one file at a time: the converter on this page runs in your browser, files up to 200 MB, no sign-up. The Filoshi desktop app ($29 once, for Windows) converts many files at once and has no size limit.
Does converting MOV to MXF lose quality?
Yes, a little. MXF is a lossy format, so some detail is thrown away when the file is saved. Filoshi re-encodes the video at a high-quality setting, so the difference is usually hard to see. MOV is lossy too, so this is a second round of compression; convert from the original, not from earlier conversions.
Is my MOV file uploaded anywhere?
No. The converter on this page runs in your browser with FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly; your MOV file is read and converted on your device and never sent to a server. The desktop app works the same way, offline.
Has MOV to MXF been tested?
Yes. MOV to MXF is one of the 1,841 conversions that passed Filoshi's automated test matrix on Windows 11.
Can I convert many MOV files at once?
Yes, in the desktop app. Drop as many MOV files as you like on the window, pick MXF once for all of them, and each file shows its own progress. The new files appear next to the originals, which are never changed.
