How it works

  1. 01

    Choose a video from your device. It is read locally; nothing is sent anywhere.

  2. 02

    Set the options — range, format or quality — and press Run.

  3. 03

    Download the result. Cutting and muting copy the original streams and finish in seconds.

About this tool

GIFs are large. The cap on length, width and frame rate is there so the file you download can actually be posted. Audio is dropped. For a longer clip, trim first, then convert.

Questions

Which video formats work?
MP4, MOV, WebM and MKV. AVI, WMV and FLV are not readable in a browser yet; convert them on your computer first.
Is the quality reduced?
Trim and Mute copy the original video packets, so quality is identical. Convert and Compress re-encode using the codecs built into your browser.
Why is there a size limit?
Files up to 500 MB are free; browser memory is the real ceiling. Plus raises the limit to 4 GB.
