Up to 100 files at once. Mixed formats are fine.

You can convert M4V to WAV free and without an account: drop the file above and the WAV is ready to download in a second or two. The conversion happens inside your own browser, so the file is never uploaded — it works on Windows, Mac, Linux, iPhone and Android, and keeps working with the network switched off.

M4V to WAV: common questions

Are my M4V files uploaded anywhere?
No. This conversion runs entirely inside your browser, so the file never leaves your device. You can confirm it yourself: open the network tab of your browser's developer tools and convert something. You will see the page load, plus the analytics and advertising the site is paid for with — and nothing carrying your file.
Is converting M4V to WAV free?
Yes. There is no account, no watermark and no limit on how many files you convert — it runs on your own machine, so it costs us nothing to let you. Files up to 100 MB are handled in the browser.
Does converting M4V to WAV lose quality?
No. WAV stores the same content without discarding anything, so the result is identical in quality to the original. Only the first soundtrack is kept. A film with a second language or a commentary track loses it.
Do I need to install anything to open WAV files?
No installation is needed for the conversion itself — it runs in the browser you already have. Opening the WAV afterwards needs whatever software normally handles Waveform Audio on your device.
