Video to playable audio
Turn a video or audio file you already have into a WAV you can play. YouTube links are not downloaded.

Details
Drop a video or audio file you already have. If this browser can decode it, the page saves a WAV you can play. The file must be under 80 MB and shorter than 20 minutes. The result is WAV, not MP3. A YouTube address is refused. This page does not download videos.

Limits
The file must be under 80 MB and shorter than 20 minutes, and this browser must be able to decode it. The result is WAV, not MP3. A YouTube address is refused.

Steps
1. Drop an MP4, WebM, MOV, MP3, M4A, or WAV you already have.
2. The page decodes it locally and downloads a WAV.
3. If you paste a YouTube link, the page explains that it will not fetch it.

Questions
Why not an MP3 from YouTube?
YouTube does not let this page read the media, and the hub does not rip streams. A file you already have can become a WAV, which plays in browsers and music apps.

Why did my file fail?
MKV, some MOV files, and DRM video often cannot be decoded in the browser. The note on the page says so instead of inventing audio.

Nothing is uploaded. Closing the tab drops the file.
The media stays in the tab.
