Generation loss — quality may degrade
JPEG uses lossy compression, and so does MOV. Converting means decoding and re-encoding — each cycle can permanently degrade quality. Convert from the original source file whenever possible.
Some metadata may not survive
Your JPEG file may contain EXIF, IPTC, XMP, ICC metadata. MOV 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
JPEG stores up to 24 bits per channel, but MOV 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
MOV lossy compression can produce codec-dependent (ProRes: minimal, H.264: blockiness). 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.
