Frequently Asked Questions

Is the conversion process secure?

Yes, we prioritize the security of your data. Your files are processed on our servers with robust security measures in place, and we do not retain copies of your files after conversion.

What is the maximum file size I can convert?

The maximum file size is currently limited to 500MB. We are continuously working to increase this limit.

What MPEG formats are supported?

We currently support MPEG-1, MPEG-2, and MPEG-4 formats. The specific codec used will depend on the input FITS data and desired output quality.

How long does the conversion take?

The conversion time depends on the size and complexity of the FITS file. Smaller files typically convert within seconds, while larger files may take several minutes.

Understanding FITS and MPEG

FITS (Flexible Image Transport System) is a standard digital format used to store astronomical and scientific data. It’s designed to handle large, complex datasets efficiently. However, FITS files aren't easily playable on standard media players. MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) is a widely supported video and audio compression standard. Converting FITS to MPEG allows you to visualize and share your scientific data more easily. This conversion is particularly useful for creating videos from astronomical images or time-series data, making complex information accessible to a wider audience. Our service bridges this gap, providing a seamless way to transform your FITS data into a readily viewable MPEG format.
