Simplest Way to Convert MP4 to M4V

M4V (.m4v) is developed by Apple company specifically designed to work alongside its own products and services such as the iPhone, iTunes store, iPod, and etc. This format is a multimedia container that stores multiple types of data like video, audio, subtitles, and many more.

Same with M4V format, MP4 is also a multimedia container, however, M4V is under the protection of Apple’s FairPlay DRM copy which aims to restrict copying or piracy. In other words, M4V videos can only be played on Apple products and services.

Unlike M4V, MP4 format is designed to work on any type of device such as Windows, Macs, iPhones, Android devices, etc. However, you may encounter incompatibility in the technical specifications when syncing files from iTunes to iDevices. To resolve this issue, it needs to meet the technical specification like bitrate, size, sample rate, and others. Therefore, it is recommended to convert MP4 files to M4V format to easily sync files on iDevices.
