Accepted video file
Upload an MP4, MOV, WebM or another supported video format. The file type and size are checked against the limits available on your current plan.
Video URL tool
Video to Link Converter
Sometimes the video is ready, but sending the full file is not practical or the place where you need it asks for a URL. This video to link tool lets you upload a supported file and get the available sharing links once the upload is complete.
You can use the direct video URL when a website or another tool needs the video file itself. The share page works better when you are sending the video to someone who should watch it in a browser.

A video URL can open the file or a share page
Once you upload the video, the result panel keeps the available links and sharing formats in one place. If you came here to turn a video into a URL, the direct link points to the uploaded file while the share page gives you a browser-friendly way to send it to someone else.
The share page can play the video with normal browser controls when the format is supported. Use the direct video URL when a website or another tool needs the actual file instead of a Media2URL page.
Browser player
The share page can play the uploaded video when the visitor’s browser supports its format and codec.
Direct file URL
Use the direct video URL when a website or another tool needs the uploaded file itself instead of a share page.
Access controls
The uploader shows the access and expiry options available for your account. Additional preview or download controls can appear where your plan supports them.
When a video link is useful
A video link helps when sending the original file is inconvenient or the place where you need it only accepts a URL. For example, a client may need to watch a short product demo or review recording without downloading a large attachment first.
The direct video URL has a different purpose. It can be useful when a website, documentation page or compatible media field needs the video file itself instead of a normal sharing page.
MP4 is a common format for this type of workflow, but MOV, WebM and other supported video files can use the same upload process where accepted. Once the video is saved to your account, you can also return to it later instead of uploading another copy for every review or handoff.
What this video to link tool does
This video to link tool is made for hosting a supported video and creating the available links for it. The uploaded file is not automatically compressed or converted into another video format as part of this upload flow.
If you simply need a downloadable link for another supported file type, the File to Link tool may be a better fit.
Access controls and privacy
Not every video needs the same type of access. A public video is fine for an embedded website player, while a client recording or temporary screen capture may need an expiry setting or restricted access.
The uploader shows the visibility and expiry options available for your account. Private or password-protected video links can depend on the selected plan.
Before you share a video link
A video sent for a quick review may not need to stay available as long as a video used on a public website. Check the expiry and visibility options before sharing when the recording is only meant for a client, teammate or short-term review.
The file itself also matters. A screen recording or internal demo can contain names, account details or other information that was not meant for a public link, so review the video before uploading it.
Only upload videos that you own or have permission to share. Details about file removal, retention and platform rules are available in the Privacy, Data Retention and Acceptable Use pages.
Video link questions
Which video formats can I upload?
Media2URL accepts supported video formats such as MP4, MOV and WebM. The file-size limit for your video upload depends on the current plan.
How do I turn an MP4 into a link?
Upload the MP4 through the Video to Link tool and wait for the upload to finish. The result panel will show the available direct video URL and sharing options for that file.
Your maximum MP4 file size depends on the Media2URL plan you are using.
Can the recipient preview the video in a browser?
Yes. The share page can play the uploaded video with browser controls when the visitor’s browser supports its format and codec.
The direct video URL works differently because it points to the video file itself instead of opening the Media2URL share page.
Does the uploaded video keep its audio track?
Yes. This video upload flow does not remove the audio track from the file you upload. Whether the sound plays normally still depends on the original video format, codec and the recipient’s browser.
Can I restrict video downloads or access?
Yes. The uploader shows the visibility and expiry options available for your account. Private or password-protected video links can depend on the selected plan.
Additional video access or download controls may also be available from the dashboard where supported.
