Upload your AVI video. PDF.to pulls the audio track out, encodes it to M4A, and gives you a M4A-only download. The video stream is discarded.
Will the audio in the M4A match the original AVI quality?
+
If the source audio is already in a codec compatible with M4A, we stream-copy without re-encoding — bit-identical to the original. Otherwise we re-encode at 192 kbps by default for near-transparent quality.
Yes, within the free size limit. PRO supports much larger AVI files and parallel batch extraction.
Does PDF.to read or store my AVI content?
+
No. The AVI video and the M4A audio output are deleted within an hour. Conversion runs in an isolated worker.
Can I batch-extract audio from multiple AVI files?
+
Yes — drop a folder of AVI videos and you will get a ZIP of M4A files back, one per source video.
Will the M4A preserve tags and metadata?
+
Title, artist, and album tags are populated from the AVI container metadata when available. You can edit them after extraction with our audio-tag tool.
ตัวแปลงจะทำงานกับ URL ของวิดีโอสตรีมได้หรือไม่?
+
No — PDF.to converts files you upload, not third-party stream URLs. Download the AVI legally first, then upload it for M4A extraction.
Why is the M4A file much smaller than the AVI video?
+
Because the video stream (typically 90%+ of file size) is discarded. Only the audio track ends up in the M4A, which is why it can drop from gigabytes to a few megabytes.
