Result
Give an audio recording a video frame
Choose an audio file, then select an animated waveform, a still background image, or both. Pick landscape, square, vertical, or compact dimensions and review the composition preview. Press Create MP4 Video to build an H.264/AAC MP4 locally. The download keeps the source base name and adds -audio-video.mp4.
Why audio needs a visual track for MP4
MP4 can contain audio alone, but many video-focused sites and players expect a picture stream. This tool creates that stream for the full audio duration. A still-image mode repeats one frame, while waveform modes draw a moving representation of the sound. The original audio is encoded as AAC so the result works in ordinary MP4 players.
Worked example: publish a podcast excerpt
Suppose you have a two-minute MP3 interview and a square cover image. Choose Still image plus animated waveform, upload the cover, select 1080 × 1080, and keep balanced quality. The image fills the square and may crop at its outer edges. A colored waveform moves across the center while the interview plays.
Choose image, waveform, or both
Image-only mode works for album art, podcast covers, announcements, and voice recordings where motion is unnecessary. Waveform-only mode places the animation over a solid color and avoids needing artwork. Combined mode retains recognizable branding while adding visible motion that confirms audio is playing. Background and waveform colors affect the preview and final render.
Frame size and cropping
Landscape 1280 × 720 suits normal video players. Square 1080 × 1080 fits square social posts. Vertical 720 × 1280 suits phone-first placement, while 640 × 360 reduces processing work and file size. Uploaded images use cover-style scaling: the frame is completely filled, aspect ratio is preserved, and excess edges are cropped rather than stretched.
Waveform and quality choices
The waveform is generated from decoded audio and animated at thirty frames per second. Height controls how much of the frame it occupies. Video quality changes H.264 compression; it does not alter the source recording's detail. Still-image videos can remain larger than expected because a video stream and AAC copy must still be written for the entire duration.
Privacy, performance, and limitations
Audio, artwork, decoded waveform data, and output stay in this browser tab. Inputs are limited to 200 MB. Long audio, large square or vertical frames, and animated waveforms can use substantial memory and may render slower than playback on phones. Only JPEG, PNG, and WebP artwork is accepted. Chapters, embedded cover art, lyrics, subtitles, and most source metadata are not copied.
Audio to MP4 FAQ
Does the waveform react to the audio?
Yes. The exported waveform is generated from the playing audio rather than being a decorative loop. The composition preview shows the overall track shape before export.
Can I use my photo without a waveform?
Yes. Choose still image only. The photo remains visible for the complete audio duration.
Will my image be stretched?
No. It is scaled proportionally and center-cropped where its shape differs from the video frame.
