Trim Video
Media & Video StudioCut a clip to an exact range with in-browser FFmpeg. No uploads.
What is Trim Video?
Trim Video lets you cut a clip down to exactly the part you need, right in your browser. Mark a start and end point on the timeline, preview the selection, and download the trimmed clip. Because the editing runs locally with in-browser FFmpeg (WebAssembly), your footage is never uploaded — it never leaves your device.
How to use Trim Video
Add your video
Drag a file onto the drop zone or click to browse. MP4, MOV, and WebM work best. The in-browser video engine loads automatically in the background.
Set the range
Drag the two handles on the slider — or type exact timestamps — to mark where the clip should start and end. The live preview shows your current selection.
Pick a trim mode
Choose Fast copy for an instant, lossless cut, or Precise re-encode for a frame-exact trim that outputs MP4 (H.264).
Trim and download
Click Trim video, then download the finished clip. Everything is processed on your device, so nothing is uploaded.
