Flip Video FAQ
What is the difference between flipping and rotating?
+
A flip reverses the content across an axis and produces a mirror image; a rotation turns it without reversing anything. Text is the giveaway: it reads backwards after a flip and stays readable after a rotation.
Does the source format matter when flipping?
+
It does. this format is read and written by the same streaming pipeline as everything else we support. That is what decides whether the mirror can be done by rewriting the file or requires decoding it first.
When would I actually want to flip rather than rotate?
+
Correcting a scan or a webcam capture that came out mirrored, making a symmetrical pair from a single asset, or matching the direction a subject faces to a layout. If the content contains text, logos or numbers, check the result — those mirror too.
Can I flip several files at once?
+
Several files in one job need a paid plan. Free use is one file per conversion, one conversion an hour. On a paid plan you can add several files to one job, then download each result on its own or all of them in one ZIP.
Does Flip Video cost anything?
+
No. Flip Video is free without an account, and the output has no watermark, corner logo or intro card. The upload and the result are deleted automatically about 24 hours after the job, which leaves time to download the result.
Which video formats does Flip Video accept?
+
MP4, MOV, MKV, WebM, AVI, WMV, FLV, 3GP, M4V, MPEG and MPG. Each file is probed for its real container and codec before anything runs, so a mixed batch is handled correctly file by file.
Why does a PDF site host Flip Video?
+
PDF.to exists because PDF is where documents go to be shared and the worst place to keep them while they are still being worked on, so nearly every job here is about getting something into or out of that state deliberately. A document rarely arrives in the state it needs to leave in: it is too big, in the wrong order, locked, or a scan with no text in it. Flip Video sits on the same upload and the same account as the conversions because those jobs turn up together.
What should I do with the result once Flip Video is finished?
+
The converter on this site moves documents between PDF, Word, images, plain text and eBook formats in either direction, so whatever comes out of a tool here has somewhere to go next without a second upload. Running that after Flip Video rather than before keeps the document structure intact through the step that is most likely to flatten it.
Is Flip Video here the same tool the sibling sites run?
+
The engines are shared — the same document toolchain, the same workers, the same limits. What a PDF site adds is a view on when a file should stay a document and when it genuinely wants to become something else, which is the decision most tools quietly make for you. It also starts from one fact about the format this site is named after: a PDF is an object graph, not a page image, so text stays selectable and vectors stay sharp no matter what happens to the raster content inside it.
Do I need an account, and does anything get kept?
+
No account is needed. Uploads and results are kept for about 24 hours, which leaves time to download the result, and are then deleted automatically; nobody reads, lists or indexes them. Several files in one job need a paid plan.
