Convert BMP to MP4

Understanding BMP and MP4 file formats

BMP (Bitmap) is a raster graphics image file format used to store bitmap digital images, independently of the display device. It is known for its simplicity and wide acceptance in Windows environments. BMP files are typically uncompressed, resulting in large file sizes.

MP4 (MPEG-4 Part 14) is a digital multimedia container format most commonly used to store video and audio, but it can also be used to store other data such as subtitles and still images. MP4 is highly compressed, making it ideal for streaming and sharing over the internet.
