WonderFox HD Video Converter Factory Pro is a dedicated video to PS4 converter that can help you convert any video to PS4 format for easy playback.
It offers a PS4 profile that’s already configured for optimal playback performance on PS4, so you don’t have to change any settings or parameters. This means even if you are a beginner, you can optimize your videos for PS4 in just one click. At the same time, the software can output files while maintaining original quality, so that you can have a superior viewing experience on PS4.
The software also allows batch conversion and offers super-faster speed thanks to its hardware acceleration support and Lightning Mode. So it'll be quick to export the final files. Below, you will learn the detailed steps to convert video for PS4 using this software.
* You need to download and install download and install the software to convert your video for PS4.
Launch WonderFox HD Video Converter Factory Pro and open Converter.
Next, click Add Files in the upper-left corner to add your video file(s) to the program. A direct drag-and-drop import is also supported.
Expand the output format page on the right side of the program. Then click the Sony tab and choose the PS4 profile.
💡 Although the PS4 profile has been optimized for PS4, you can still open Parameter settings and adjust the parameters to meet your specific needs.
For example, the frame rate of PS4 is set to 24 fps by default. But if your video is recorded at 25 fps, you can change the frame rate to 25 fps to avoid re-encoding the frame rate. But if the original frame rate is over 30 fps, you need to keep the frame rate below 30 fps to ensure that all PS4 devices support it.
Click the ▼ button at the bottom of the program to set an output path and press Run to convert the video to PS4.
💡 The conversion should take a few seconds to several minutes depending on the source file size. But if your computer supports GPU acceleration, the processing time could be greatly reduced. Also, if the Lightning Mode (appeared as ⚡ in the middle of the task) is triggered, the conversion will be even faster and lossless.
After the conversion, you can put the converted video in a folder and transfer it to your USB (make sure that the USB is formatted with either exFAT or FAT32). Then connect your USB to your PS4 to enjoy your movies without error.

The PS4 supported video formats include
Generally speaking, MP4 with H264/AAC is the best video format for PS4.
There are multiple reasons why your PS4 won’t read MP4:
WonderFox HD Video Converter Factory Pro lets you speed up the video-to-PS4 conversion using hardware acceleration and Lightning Mode.
If your computer is equipped with the latest version of Intel QSV or Nvidia NVENC graphics card, you can take advantage of the hardware to increase the conversion speed up to 25 times.
On the other hand, if your video is already encoded to fit PS4, but just in an unsupported container like MOV, it will trigger Lightning Mode, which can provide instant and lossless conversion.
