Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of video files are supported?
The extractor natively understands dozens of structural containers, including MP4, WebM, MOV, and AVI.
Will the MP3 be stereo or mono sound?

How long does a long podcast take to process?
Because it ignores all the complex visual data, extracting audio is generally much faster than a standard video conversion.
