TRIM VIDEO

Trim video online cut a clip from MP4/WebM

Cut just the part you need, with its sound.

Set the start and end in seconds, play only that part, then save it as MP4 or WebM. If the source has sound, the sound comes along.

BeforeAfter

In short Trim video is a web tool that lets you set a start and end by number or slider, preview the selected part, and save it with sound as MP4 or WebM. One MP4 or WebM video up to 100MB, 2 minutes, 1080p-equivalent and 60fps. Exact cut re-encodes the clip, so a clip from a small, low-bitrate video can end up larger than the original. Keep original copies the data without re-encoding, but the end may extend to the next scene boundary. Earlier decode frames also remain in the file, so use Exact cut to remove sensitive scenes.

GOOD TO KNOW

Good to know

  • Videos you can add: one MP4 (H.264/AAC) or WebM (VP8 · VP9/Opus), up to 100MB, 2 minutes, 1080p-equivalent and 60fps. Choose at least 0.2 seconds.
  • Exact cut cuts exactly where you choose but re-encodes the clip, so a clip from a small, low-bitrate video can end up larger than the original.
  • Keep original does not re-encode, but the end may extend to the next scene boundary. Earlier decode frames also remain in the file, so use Exact cut to remove sensitive scenes. For WebM it works only when the start is on a scene boundary.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Where do my files get uploaded?

Nowhere. Everything is processed in this device's browser, so there is nothing on a server to delete. Results you haven't saved are cleared when you close the window.

The clip is larger than the original.

Exact cut re-encodes the chosen part. If the source was very lightly compressed, the result can be larger. Keep original does not re-encode.

Is the sound saved too?

If the source has sound, it is saved with the clip. If it has none, the result card shows “Source has no audio”.

Which devices has it been checked on?

We confirmed it in Edge on Windows. Phones were tested by simulating a phone screen on a PC; Safari-based browsers and real Mac, iPhone and Android devices are still to come.
