Video to Video Converter (Windows)
The first among the programs you can use to convert your MPEG-4 videos to other formats is Video To Video Converter. It can be used on Windows and in a portable version (so you do not need to install it to be able to use it) and, separately, it supports all major video file formats. It is sufficiently intuitive and has the interface completely translated into cittàn. Try it now, I'm sure it will satisfy you.
To download the portable version of Video to Video Converter on your computer, connect to its website and first press the button Download and then on the link Click here to download ZIP archive present under the heading Download Video to Video Converter - Portable Version.
When the download is complete, open the ZIP file you just obtained (VTV.zip), extract the contents to any location on your Windows and run the executable vv.exe present inside.
Now, set cittàn as the language using the appropriate drop-down menu, press on OK and drag and drop the MPEG-4 videos you are interested in converting to another format into the window you see appear on your desktop.
Then select the output file format icon, click the button OK, indicate the path where you want to save the converted videos by clicking on the icon folder which is located at the bottom right and then presses the button Converted which is at the top left.

If you need to, you can also adjust the settings found in the right sidebar of the program to adjust the quality of the output videos, the resolution, the size, the aspect ratio, the audio tracks and so on. If you have no special needs, I still recommend that you leave the quality (same as source) or to select you need higher values.
Freemake Video Converter (Windows)
Didn't the software I have already told you about convinced you in a particular way? Then try now Freemake Video Converter and you will see that you will not regret it. It is a very famous and appreciated video file converter (as well as audio files) in the Windows environment. It is also in cittàn and offers several extra functions such as DVD burning and merging videos into multiple parts. Unfortunately, it inserts a logo at the beginning and at the end of the converted videos and a watermark in the center of the latter: to remove these limitations, it is necessary to purchase the paid version of the program (9,95 euros / year or 19,95 euros one-off).
To download Freemake Video Converter on your computer, just to start connected to the program's website and click on the button Free download.

Then wait for the procedure to start and at the end of the conversion you will find your converted videos in the folder Video of the PC.
Smart Converter (Mac)
If what you are using is a Mac the programs that I have indicated in the previous lines are not suitable. As I have already specified, they can in fact only be used on Windows. On macOS / OS X, however, you can appeal to Smart Converter, a small program that offers essential conversion functions but is perfectly capable of performing the task for which it is intended. As for the supported file types, MPEG-4 apart allows you to intervene on all major types of video. Plus, it can be downloaded directly from the Mac App Store and it's free.

At this point, you can finally enjoy your first conversion operation. To do this, drag the movie you want to act on in the main window of Smart Converter, select the target format you prefer from the menu More at the bottom right and click on Convert. If you see the writing appear Conversion speed: slowest (slower conversion speed), don't be alarmed: it means the software will have to convert both the video and audio of your video file to turn it into other format.
When the conversion process is complete, by default all the output videos are saved in the folder of Movies> Smart Converter from the Mac.
