About this tool

The video cutter lets you select a specific segment of any video and save only that portion, without re-encoding the file. Processing runs entirely in the browser with ffmpeg.wasm — your videos are never uploaded to any server.

To use it, load the video and set the start and end points of the desired clip using the time fields or the interactive slider. The output file contains only the selected segment and keeps the original format and quality — the video stream is copied byte-for-byte without any re-encoding.

Common use cases include: trimming long introductions before sharing a video, isolating a specific scene from a recording, separating individual presentations from a multi-session recording, or preparing short clips for social media. Because there is no re-encoding, the process is fast and quality remains identical to the original.

One important detail: since the tool uses stream copy (no re-encoding), cuts happen at the nearest keyframe to the marked points. This means the actual clip may start a fraction of a second before the exact time you set. For most practical purposes this difference is imperceptible, but for frame-accurate editing a dedicated video editor is recommended.

Frequently asked questions

Is my video uploaded to any server?

No. The cut happens locally in the browser with ffmpeg.wasm. The file never leaves your device.

Is video quality preserved?

Yes. The tool uses stream copy with no re-encoding, so the output quality is identical to the original.

Is the tool free?

Yes, completely free with no account required.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes, on modern browsers for Android and iOS. Processing may take longer for larger files.

Why didn't the cut happen at the exact second I set?

Cutting without re-encoding snaps to the nearest keyframe, which can differ by fractions of a second from the marked point. Frame-accurate cuts would require re-encoding the video.
