This project is a web application that allows the conversion of video files from a specific format (incompatible with web standards) to a format compatible with modern browsers. The application enables users to upload a video, perform the conversion, and watch the converted video directly in the browser. The application uses Python and Flask for the backend, Amazon S3 for file storage, and MoviePy for video conversion.

• Video Upload: Web interface for video file uploads.
• Video Conversion: Converts videos to a browser-compatible format (e.g., from AVI to MP4).
• S3 Storage: Videos are stored in Amazon S3 before and after conversion.
• Video Playback: Users can watch the converted video directly in the browser.

• Python 3
• Flask: Web framework used to create the application.
• MoviePy: Library for video conversion.
• Amazon S3: Cloud file storage.
• Python-dotenv: To securely manage environment variables.
