Video Frame Rate Converter - Change FPS Online

Convert video frame rate: 24fps (cinematic), 30fps (standard), 60fps (smooth gaming), 120fps (slow motion). Use-case presets for film, YouTube, gaming, and smooth motion interpolation.

Different platforms and devices expect different frame rates. The Frame Rate Converter changes a video's FPS, from cinema-standard 24fps to smooth 60fps, or any custom value up to 240. It works by resampling the existing frames to the target rate: when you raise the rate it duplicates frames to fill the gaps, and when you lower it, it drops frames evenly. The video stream is then re-encoded so the new rate is baked in.

Video Frame Rate Converter - Change FPS Online: a worked example

A 60 fps capture must be 30 fps to match the rest of an edit timeline.

Input

capture.mp4 60 fps → 30 fps

Output

A 30 fps file with even frame decimation, no judder

Converting between related rates by clean decimation (or interpolation when going up) avoids the stutter an uneven cadence causes when mixed with other footage. Matching fps across clips keeps motion uniform in the final edit.

Change Your Video's Frame Rate

Different platforms and devices expect different frame rates. The Frame Rate Converter changes a video's FPS, from cinema-standard 24fps to smooth 60fps, or any custom value up to 240. It works by resampling the existing frames to the target rate: when you raise the rate it duplicates frames to fill the gaps, and when you lower it, it drops frames evenly. The video stream is then re-encoded so the new rate is baked in.

How to use

  1. 1Upload your video file.
  2. 2Select the target frame rate from presets or enter a custom value (1 to 240).
  3. 3Review the conversion summary showing whether frames will be duplicated or dropped.
  4. 4Convert and download the full video.

When to use it

  • Matching broadcast standards

    Convert between 24fps, 25fps (PAL), and 30fps (NTSC) to meet broadcast or distribution requirements.

  • Standardizing mixed footage

    Normalize clips recorded at different frame rates to one common rate before merging or uploading them together.

  • Reducing file size

    Lower the frame rate of screen recordings or surveillance footage where high FPS is unnecessary, significantly reducing file size.

  • Gaming content

    Relabel and re-encode console captures to a target frame rate for consistent YouTube or Twitch uploads.

Key features

  • Common presets: 24, 25, 30, 48, 50, 60 FPS plus 120 and 240
  • Custom frame rate from 1 to 240 FPS
  • Frame duplication when raising the rate, even frame dropping when lowering it
  • Original audio track copied through unchanged
  • Re-encodes video with H.264 so the new rate is fixed in the file
  • Runs entirely in-browser via FFmpeg WebAssembly

How it works

Changing frame rate is not as simple as relabeling the FPS metadata. This tool uses FFmpeg's fps filter to resample the timeline to your chosen rate, then re-encodes the video with H.264 (ultrafast preset, CRF 23) while copying the original audio track unchanged. Going to a higher rate duplicates existing frames so the file genuinely plays at the new FPS, the motion does not look smoother because no new in-between frames are invented, the same captured frames are simply shown more often. Going to a lower rate drops frames at even intervals, which reduces file size and is virtually invisible on static or slow content but can look slightly less smooth during fast motion.

This is frame duplication and dropping, not motion-compensated interpolation, so it is fast and predictable and never produces the warping or ghosting artifacts that synthesized-frame interpolation can introduce around fast action or cuts. It is the right tool for matching a delivery frame rate (for example normalizing assorted clips to 30fps for a single upload) or for changing the nominal rate of footage so it plays back faster or slower. If your goal is true slow-motion smoothness from low-FPS source, this tool cannot manufacture that detail.

Frequently asked questions

Does increasing frame rate actually make video smoother?

No. This tool duplicates existing frames to reach the higher rate rather than synthesizing new in-between frames, so the file plays at the target FPS but the motion is not genuinely smoother. True interpolation that invents intermediate frames is not performed.

Will lowering the frame rate reduce quality?

Each remaining frame retains its original quality. The video will appear less smooth during fast motion, but static or slow scenes look virtually identical, and the file gets smaller.

What frame rate should I choose for YouTube?

YouTube accepts 24, 25, 30, 48, 50, and 60 FPS. 30 or 60 FPS are the most common choices. Match your source frame rate when possible to avoid unnecessary conversion.

Related tools and how they differ

  • Video Speed Controller - Speed Up or Slow Down Videos: Retimes the clip so its duration changes (setpts plus pitch-aware atempo audio); use it for slow motion or time-lapse, not for hitting a target FPS at the same length.
