What is MPG?

MPEG Video (.mpg). MPG is the three-letter extension for MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 video, the formats of Video CDs and DVDs. It plays almost everywhere but is large for its quality next to H.264, so MPG files are often converted to MP4.

Common use: Video CD and DVD-era video, older camera and TV-card recordings

Output format

What is 3GP?

3GPP Multimedia (.3gp). 3GP is the video format defined for 3G mobile phones. Phones of the 2000s recorded small, low-resolution 3GP clips with H.263 or H.264 video and AMR or AAC sound, so many old phone videos are in this format.

Common use: Videos from older mobile phones

Questions about MPG to 3GP

Is converting MPG to 3GP 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 MPG to 3GP lose quality?
Yes, a little. 3GP 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. MPG is lossy too, so this is a second round of compression; convert from the original, not from earlier conversions.
Is my MPG file uploaded anywhere?
No. The converter on this page runs in your browser with FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly; your MPG file is read and converted on your device and never sent to a server. The desktop app works the same way, offline.
Has MPG to 3GP been tested?
Yes. MPG to 3GP is one of the 1,841 conversions that passed Filoshi's automated test matrix on Windows 11.
Can I convert many MPG files at once?
Yes, in the desktop app. Drop as many MPG files as you like on the window, pick 3GP once for all of them, and each file shows its own progress. The new files appear next to the originals, which are never changed.
