ConvertX: The Ultimate Universal File Converter.Host It Yourself

In 2025, almost every project requires converting files—images, videos, documents, 3D models, you name it.

Yet most conversion tools either force you to trust some third party, or they limit formats, file size, or speed.

We asked: what if you could convert anything on your own server—private, unlimited, and under your control?

That’s ConvertX.

What Is ConvertX?

ConvertX is a self-hosted, open-source file conversion web app that supports over 1,000 different formats.

It combines powerful conversion engines like FFmpeg (for audio/video), Pandoc (for documents), Vips / GraphicsMagick (for images), Inkscape (for vector graphics) and many others.

You upload a file, choose the output format, and ConvertX handles rest. It supports batch conversions, multiple users, password protection, and more. GitHub+2ScottiByte's Discussion Forum+2

It’s like having a universal “file translator” in your private cloud.

Why ConvertX Fits Perfectly with Yundera

We chose ConvertX for Yundera for the same reason we chose Vaultwarden and PsiTransfer: control, flexibility, privacy.

  • You don’t have to upload large files to unknown services.
  • It’s open source, auditable, customizable.
  • It’s broad in scope—one app replaces many separate converters.
  • It’s built to scale on server environments like ours.

And because ConvertX is containerizable and lightweight, it slots nicely into the Yundera ecosystem.

What “Over 1,000 Formats” Really Means

Here’s a more concrete view of what ConvertX can handle:

  • Video & Audio — FFmpeg under the hood converts ~472 input video formats to ~199 output formats. 
  • Images — Vips and GraphicsMagick support tens to hundreds of image formats (JPEG, PNG, WEBP, HEIF, TIFF, etc.). 
  • Documents & Text — Pandoc, LibreOffice: convert Word, Markdown, PDF, HTML, LaTeX
  • Vector & Graphics — Inkscape for SVG, vector formats. 
  • 3D Assets & Models — Support via converters like Assimp.

Because ConvertX orchestrates many underlying tools, you get a “one-stop shop” conversion service.

Features of ConvertX That Make It Truly Powerful

ConvertX is more than “upload & convert.” Here’s what sets it apart:

  • Batch Processing — convert many files at once.
  • Multiple accounts & roles — ideal when multiple users need access.
  • Password Protection / Access Control — restrict who can convert or download.
  • Supported Converters / Tools Integration — FFmpeg, Vips, Pandoc, LibreOffice, Inkscape, etc.
  • History & Logging — see past conversions (depending on configuration) GitHub
  • Concurrent Conversions — parallel processing if you have server CPU/memory capacity
  • Self-hosting & Privacy — all conversion happens on your infrastructure, no third-party leak risk
  • Lightweight & Modular — only use the tools you need; scale resources per workload

In short: convert any file you need, in house, under your supervision.
