Tips: MP4 files have become a popular file type for portable devices like MP3, MP4 players and file-sharing sites due to the small sizes and therefore short upload times. While MP4 files are not widely recognizable in many popular editing programs. So please make sure the video editing software recognizes MP4 files when you choose it.
