I tried it and immediately fell in love! It was so easy to use! After a couple conversions I bought the guys a cup of coffee. A couple more and decided this was too good to abuse! I joined! My life is so much easier!

Agata WierzbickaI've used this product for years. And customer service is excellent. Just had an issue where I was charged and I didn't agree with the charge and they took care of it, even though they didn't have to.

David SheltonIt’s my first time using it. I had some complications doing it. I’m not very good at this. But I wrote to the company and I had a lot of help. I’m satisfied with customer service and with the app.
Ana SuárezI use Zamar whenever I need to convert audio and video files from multiple submitters to 1 uniform file format for Audio and Video Editing. I can do multiple large files in a short amount of time.
Christopher BeeGreat for when you need a lot of conversions in a short time. You have directly access and can even put the subscription on for just a month.
Sabina CalisGreat thanks to you all for helping me to get the OLD files converted correctly. 20 years, quite a long time, reviewing the files brings much memory to me. That's the best gift I received last year. Thank you all again.
Jiunn-Ru LaiFantastic service! My mom's computer died and she has 1000+ Word Perfect files she wants to keep for some reason. Since Word Perfect is basically dead, I decided to convert all her files. Zamzar's converter was perfect.

MPG Video Format MPG Converter
An MPG file has a full name of MPEG video file, and was developed by the Moving Picture Experts Group. The MPG format is a video format that has been embedded with MPEG compression, specifically MPEG-1 or -2 formatting.
MPG files are widely used, which is perhaps surprising given that the type of compression that’s used – lossy – means there’s some degradation to the file. However, perhaps the reason they are so popular is because, typically, they’re one of the smallest video file formats around, which makes sharing and storage so easy; plus, almost all video applications can open them.
MPG files are made up of audio, video and metadata, all moulded seamlessly into one file. Almost all video applications can open an MPG file, including Windows Media Player and the VLC media player.

MP4 Video Format MP4 Converter
An MP4, sometimes known as an MPEG4, is a multimedia file that is used to store video or audio data. MP4 files are typically smaller in size than other audio or video file types because MP4 files use a mix of compression technologies. Video and audio compression are usually handled by different codecs (audiovisual encoders). The video part is compressed with MPEG-4, a standard that was developed by Moving Picture Expert Group (MPEG), while the audio is typically compressed using AAC compression.
The explosion in popularity of the MP4 format is largely down to Apple and the iTunes Store, as it is the standard format for almost all of the media downloaded from the store. MP4 files are also typically seen when a video is downloaded from the internet.
MP4 files can normally be opened on your computer using Windows Media Player or QuickTime, and can be opened on mobile devices without the need to download any applications.

No, is the answer. MP4 is, to all intents and purposes, the same as MPEG-4, but it is not the same as MPEG. MPEG stands for the Moving Pictures Expert Group and MPEG has many different standards ranging from 1 to 21. MPEG-4 is one such standard, and that is often shortened to MP4. MPEG, meanwhile, is often shortened to MPG.
MP4 files are much smaller in size than MPG files, and, at the same bit-rate, MP4 is also better in quality, as it supports more advanced video codecs. MP4 files are also easier to open across a wider range of applications. MPG still has its place, but increasingly MP4 files are more widely used.
It can, but a program such as WinX Video Converter (https://www.winxdvd.com/video-converter/) will need to be downloaded first. Alternatively, you can use an online file converter, such as Zamzar, which converts MPG to MP4 in real time, and with no need to download any software.
MPEG-4 is a codec that was developed by the Moving Pictures Expert Group (MPEG). MPEG was the first codec it developed, and since then standards have ranged from 1-21, with MPEG-4 being one such standard.
