Batch Settings
Some metadata may not survive
Your WEBP file may contain EXIF, XMP, ICC metadata. WEBM has limited or no support for these metadata types. Location data (GPS), camera settings, and color profiles may be stripped during conversion.
Color depth reduction: 24-bit → 10-bit
WEBP stores up to 24 bits per channel, but WEBM supports only 10 bits. You may notice banding in smooth gradients (like sky or skin tones) where subtle color transitions are lost.
What compression artifacts to expect
WEBM lossy compression can produce blockiness (VP8), blurring (VP9/AV1). At the high quality settings CocoConvert uses by default, these are usually invisible to the eye. Lower quality settings trade visual fidelity for smaller file sizes.
