Here are 2 simple steps to convert your OBJ to MP4 using our fast and free OBJ converter tool.
Extension | OBJ |
Full Name | Wavefront |
Type | 3D Model |
Mime Type | text/plain |
Format | Text |
Opens With | MeshLab, CAD Assistant, DAZ Studio |
The OBJ file format originally created by Wavefront Technologies and later adopted by many other 3D software vendors is a simple text-based file format for describing 3D model/geometry. This data can include Vertices, Faces, Normals, Texture Coordinates and references to external Texture files.
As the format is text-based it is relatively straight-forward to parse by 3D modelling applications. A downside of the text-based format is the files can be rather large compared to similar binary formats such as STL and compressed files such as 3MF.
OBJ Converter Capabilities
Our OBJ 3D Model/Mesh tool does not support any color material data contained within OBJ files so the converted file will not contain any color information.
Extension | MP4 |
Full Name | MPEG-4 |
Type | Video |
Mime Type | video/mp4 |
Format | Binary |
The MP4 video format is a standard format for video encoding and storage. In order to minimize the file sizes the format employs a lossy compression method which reduces the amount of data to store the video content without any noticeable loss in quality.
Due to their small size and efficient compression methods the MP4 format is ideally suited to online video streaming. The MP4 format may use a variety of CODECs which are usually supported by most MP4 players with additional CODECs downloadable if needed.
The OBJ 3D format does not support animations within our conversion tool so our tool will create a simple 360 degree rotating 3D animation that will be rendered to a MP4 file ready for download.
First click the "Upload..." button, select your OBJ file to upload. Your OBJ file will be uploaded to our servers. When the OBJ to MP4 conversion has completed, you can download your MP4 file straight away.
We aim to process all OBJ to MP4 conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds however this can be longer for certain files, so please be patient.
We aim to provide the best conversion experience. Our tools are under constant review and development with new features being added every week.
If your OBJ file contains an animation then our tool will create a MP4 file containing the full length animation. If there is no animation present our tool will use a simple rotation animation.
