FLAC to M4B

Convert lossless FLAC audio into a chaptered M4B audiobook — right in your browser. Chapter markers, cover art, and embedded metadata are all included. Your files never leave your device.

New here? M4B is the audiobook format Apple Books, Plex, and most modern players recognise — chapters, cover art, and resume position in one tagged file. Drop your audio in and you'll get back a single M4B with chapters at every file boundary.

  • One chapter per file, titled from the filename
  • Optional cover art, embedded at 1200×1200
  • More detail on the FAQ page

FLAC to M4B — common questions

Does converting FLAC to M4B lose quality?
Yes — FLAC is lossless and M4B uses AAC, which is lossy. For spoken-word audiobooks the difference is inaudible at 64 kbps; that is the default and the standard for audiobook distribution. If you have music or high-fidelity content, choose 128 kbps in the bitrate selector.
Can I mix FLAC and MP3 files in the same audiobook?
Yes. mp3tom4b re-encodes every input file to AAC before joining them, so mixed formats work fine. Drop FLAC and MP3 files together and they will be combined into one M4B in the order you arrange them.
Why are my FLAC files large but the M4B is small?
FLAC files store audio losslessly, which is much larger than AAC. A 500 MB FLAC audiobook will typically produce an M4B of 100–150 MB at 64 kbps — perfectly normal and the right trade-off for spoken audio.
Are my FLAC files uploaded for conversion?
No. The entire conversion runs in your browser via a WebAssembly build of FFmpeg. Nothing leaves your device. You can verify this by watching the Network tab in your browser's developer tools — there are no audio file uploads.
