Convert MPE to M4V

Understanding mpe and m4v file formats

MPE is a video file extension associated with MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) video compression. MPE files are typically encoded using MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 standards, making them compatible with a wide range of media players and devices. However, the format is somewhat outdated and less commonly used today.

M4V is a video container format developed by Apple, similar to MP4 but with support for DRM (Digital Rights Management) protection. M4V files are widely used for distributing video content on Apple devices and platforms, offering high-quality video and compatibility with iTunes, iOS, and macOS.
