+Spacedrive makes it easy to manage your media files with powerful built-in conversion capabilities. Whether you need to change file formats, compress media for efficient storage, or ensure compatibility across different devices, Spacedrive's Media Conversion tools are here to help.
+
+## Key Features of Media Conversion
+
+- **Effortless Format Conversion:**
+  Spacedrive allows you to convert media files, including images, videos, and audio, to a variety of popular formats. This helps ensure your files are accessible and usable across different devices and platforms.
+
+- **Supported File Types:**
+  You can convert between a wide range of file types, such as:
+
+  - Image formats: JPEG, PNG, SVG, WEBP, GIF, and more.
+  - Video formats: MP4, AVI, MOV, MKV, and others.
+  - Audio formats: MP3, WAV, AAC, FLAC, and more.
+
+- **Batch Processing:**
+  Convert multiple media files at once with batch processing, saving you time when working with large libraries of media. Simply select the files you need to convert, choose your output format, and let Spacedrive handle the rest.
+
+- **Compression for Optimal Storage:**
+  Media files can take up significant storage space, especially high-resolution images and videos. Spacedrive offers options for compressing files during conversion to reduce file size without sacrificing quality. This is particularly useful when managing decentralized storage.
+
+- **Maintaining Metadata Integrity:**
+  During the conversion process, Spacedrive preserves important file metadata such as creation date, tags, and descriptions. This ensures that your organizational structure and file information remain intact even after conversion.
+
+- **Seamless Integration with Decentralized Storage:**
+  Media conversion in Spacedrive is designed to work seamlessly within the decentralized file management environment. Whether your files are stored locally or across distributed storage nodes, you can easily convert and manage your media without limitations.
+
+## How to Convert Media Files in Spacedrive
+
+1. **Locate Your Media Files:**
+   Use the search or navigation features to find the media files you want to convert in your Spacedrive library.
+
+2. **Open the Media Conversion Tool:**
+   Right-click on the file(s) and select "Convert" from the context menu, or use the Command Palette (`Command + K` / `Ctrl + K`) to search for the conversion command.
+
+3. **Choose Your Target Format:**
+   Select the desired output format for your file. Options will vary depending on whether you're converting images, videos, or audio files.
+
+4. **Optional Settings:**
+   Adjust additional options such as compression levels or resolution for video files. You can also choose whether to retain metadata or strip it for privacy.
+
+5. **Start the Conversion:**
+   Click "Convert" to begin the process. You can monitor the conversion progress in the job manager, and batch conversions will queue for processing.
+
+6. **Access Converted Files:**
+   Once the conversion is complete, the new file will be available in your library alongside the original, unless you choose to replace it.

-Spaces are virtual folders, they can contain files from various locations.
+**Spaces** are virtual folders designed to foster collaboration and organization within Spacedrive. They allow you to share, curate, and customize a collection of files from various locations, making it easy to collaborate with others or manage your content just the way you want.
+
+### What are Spaces?
+
+Spaces are virtual folders designed to give you control over how you organize, share, and collaborate with others. Unlike traditional folders, a Space can contain files from various locations within your library. Whether it's documents, media files, or entire folders, you can curate your Space the way you want, without moving or duplicating your content.
+
+### Build Your Space, Your Way
+
+Creating a Space is simple, but what you can do with it is powerful:
+
+- **Pin Key Folders**: Start by pinning important folders to the top of your Space for easy access. These could be work files, personal projects, or shared media collections—whatever matters most to you.
+- **Curate Content**: Populate your Space with files from any part of your Spacedrive library. You can mix and match files, dragging them in from different storage locations, or organizing them however you prefer.
+
+### Sharing and Collaboration Made Easy
+
+A big focus of Spaces is **community** and **collaboration**. Whether you’re sharing your Space with teammates, friends, or collaborators, you can easily control access:
+
+- **Invite Collaborators**: With just a few clicks, you can share your Space with others, giving them the ability to view, edit, or add their own content.
+- **Set Permissions**: Need to control who can edit what? You have full control over permissions, allowing you to manage who can make changes and who can simply view the files.
+
+### A Space for Every Purpose
+
+Spaces are incredibly versatile. Here are just a few ways you can use them:
+
+- **Team Projects**: Create a collaborative Space for team members to contribute files, share ideas, and work together. Pin important folders or files for quick reference.
+- **Personal Organization**: Use Spaces to organize your personal files into meaningful categories, like photography projects, design inspiration, or family photos.
+- **Community Resource Sharing**: Spaces make it easy to create a shared resource hub where others can access important documents, media, or references.
+
+### Stay Organized with Flexibility
+
+Because Spaces pull from various parts of your library, you don’t need to move files around to keep things organized. Simply pin what you need, and your files will be available within the Space, ready for you and your collaborators to access.
+
+Want to add more structure? Use drag-and-drop functionality to arrange files or folders within the Space. You’re in full control of how everything is displayed, giving you the freedom to build a Space that matches your workflow.
+
+### Privacy and Security
+
+Sharing doesn’t mean compromising on security. With Spaces, you can decide who has access to your content. You can:
+
+- Make a Space private, accessible only to you.
+- Share it with specific individuals or groups.
+- Set read-only or full-edit permissions, ensuring that your files are protected while still enabling collaboration.
+
+---
+
+**Spaces** are built to grow and evolve with you. Whether you're organizing personal files, collaborating with a team, or building a community around shared resources, Spaces give you the tools to do it your way. Jump in, create your first Space, and start collaborating today!
