Convert MOD to Android Video — Free Online Converter

MOD (Amiga Module) is a tracker music format originating from the Commodore Amiga in 1987, storing musical patterns, instrument samples, and sequencing data in a single file. Android devices have no native MOD playback support — the Stagefright media framework only handles standard audio/video codecs. Converting MOD to Android Video produces an MP4 file with H.264 video (a static or visualized waveform) and AAC audio, playable on every Android device through the native media player, Google Photos, and all standard video apps.

MOD files are a product of the demoscene and retro computing world — thousands of classic chiptune compositions exist only in tracker formats. Android phones and tablets cannot play them without specialized apps like OpenMPT or ModPlug. Converting to Android Video makes these compositions instantly shareable via Android messaging apps (WhatsApp, Telegram), playable through Android Auto, and viewable on Android-based smart TVs and media devices.

This conversion also enables MOD music creators to share their compositions on social media platforms that require standard video formats, adding visual waveforms or album art to the audio content.

FFmpeg renders the MOD file's pattern data, decoding all channel samples and effects (portamento, vibrato, volume slides, arpeggio) into a PCM audio stream using its built-in MOD decoder (based on libmodplug). The audio is then encoded to AAC-LC at 192 kbps stereo. A video stream is generated — either a static frame (album art or solid color) or an oscilloscope/waveform visualization — and encoded to H.264 Baseline Profile at 720p for broad Android compatibility. The output is wrapped in an MP4 container with faststart for instant playback.
