Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC) applies lossless compression to PCM audio, preserving the original waveform exactly while reducing file size by 40-60% versus WAV. QuickTime Movie (MOV) packages video and audio in Apple's QuickTime container, which can hold ProRes, H.264, or HEVC tracks. This wraps the audio track in a video container, which some platforms require for upload. Metadata such as creation date and embedded colour profiles is preserved where the target format supports it. The result is a standard MOV file readable by any compatible application. 1converter handles FLAC-to-MOV conversion server-side: files are uploaded over HTTPS, processed on isolated cloud infrastructure, and the converted output is available for download for 24 hours before automatic deletion. No account is required for standard conversions.
