Convert Files to DPX or from DPX Online for Free

What is DPX Format?

A Digital Picture Exchange (DPX) file is a standard image format popular in the film, visual effects, and post-production industries. It was developed by the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) as a standard for storing high-quality still frames from scanned film or digital cinema footage.

Each DPX file holds a single frame of a sequence, and thus a movie or video clip can consist of thousands of DPX files. The format preserves uncompressed or minimally compressed image data, as well as precise color data, timecode, and metadata such as camera details, color space, and film stock information.

Frequently Asked Questions

A DPX converter is a program that enables you to convert high-quality DPX image files into formats like JPG, TIFF, or PNG. Because DPX files are generally used in professional films or visual-effects work, a lot of regular image viewers don’t support them natively. The conversion makes it easy for you to preview, share, or archive your frames without heavy post-production software.

It is simple and quick to convert DPX to JPG with AhaConvert. Simply do as follows:

  • Upload your DPX file to the official AhaConvert website (aahh.10smt.com);
  • Choose JPG as the output format (PNG or TIFF are available as well);
  • Start Conversion and download the result.

Some software tools and professional applications do, but AhaConvert focuses on converting individual DPX frames to mainstream image formats. If you want to turn a full DPX image sequence into a video, you will need video editing software like DaVinci Resolve or Adobe After Effects.

Technically, yes, but not directly with most online converters. DPX files are individual image frames, not video files, so converting them into a QuickTime (MOV) video requires software that can assemble image sequences into motion footage, as explained in the last question.

Tools like DaVinci Resolve, Adobe After Effects, or Nuke are commonly used for this purpose. You’d import your DPX sequence, set the correct frame rate, and then export the timeline as a QuickTime MOV file using your preferred codec (such as ProRes or DNxHR).

Online converters like AhaConvert focus on converting single DPX frames into standard still-image formats such as JPG, PNG, or TIFF. If your goal is to turn an entire sequence into a video, you’ll need to use professional post-production software.
