FPS converter
Change a video’s frame rate to 24, 25, 30, 50 or 60 fps while it keeps exactly the same length and speed.

How to change a video’s frame rate
- Choose or drop your video. Its current frame rate is shown under the player.
- Pick the new frame rate.
- Optionally switch on Blend frames for smoother conversions between rates that do not divide evenly (such as 24 → 30).
- Press Convert frame rate and download the MP4. The audio is copied across unchanged in timing.
Common frame rates
| Rate | Where it is used |
|---|---|
| 23.976 / 24 | Cinema and the “film look” |
| 25 | PAL TV standard (Europe, much of Asia, Africa, Australia) |
| 29.97 / 30 | NTSC TV standard (North America, Japan) and most phone video |
| 50 / 60 | Sport, video games, smooth screen recordings |
| 120 / 240 | Recording only: slow motion source footage |
Frame rate conversion vs slow motion
Both involve frame rates, but they do opposite things. Conversion keeps time the same and changes how many pictures show it. Slow motion keeps the pictures and stretches time. A 120 fps clip converted to 30 fps plays at normal speed with three of every four frames dropped; the same clip slowed to 0.25× plays at 30 fps with every frame kept. For the second, use the slow motion maker.
Dropping frames (60 → 30) is clean. Adding frames (24 → 30) repeats one frame in four, which can cause a faint judder on slow pans; Blend frames softens it.
Questions people ask
Does changing the frame rate change the speed?
Not here. The FPS converter keeps the clip the same length: going from 60 to 30 fps drops every other frame, going from 24 to 30 repeats some frames. If you want a high-frame-rate clip played slower, use the slow motion maker instead.
Which frame rate should I choose?
24 fps for a film look, 25 fps for PAL-region TV and Europe, 30 fps for most web and phone video, 50 or 60 fps for sport, games and smooth screen recordings.
Will converting 30 fps to 60 fps make it smoother?
Not really. Without motion interpolation, each frame is just shown twice. “Blend frames” mixes neighbours for a slightly softer result, but real smoothness has to be captured by the camera.
Why convert frame rate at all?
To match a project timeline (mixing 25 and 30 fps clips causes judder), to shrink a 60 fps file for sharing, or because a platform or TV expects a specific rate.
