About the video splitter
Clips a section out of a video entirely in your browser using the MediaRecorder API. Nothing is uploaded; the clip is written straight to your downloads.
Cut one section out of a video file in your browser: choose a video, set a start and end time in seconds, and download that part as a new clip. The preview player helps you find the exact moment.
The clip is recorded while the video plays, so a 30-second section takes about 30 seconds to save. To split a video into several pieces, repeat this for each part. The video never leaves your device.

Frequently asked questions
- Is my video uploaded to a server?
- No. The video is opened and recorded inside your browser, and nothing is sent to or stored on our side.
- Which videos can I open?
- Any video your browser can play. MP4 and WebM are the safest choices. If a file will not play in the preview, your browser cannot read that format.
- Does the clip keep the original quality?
- Not exactly. The clip is recorded again from the playing video rather than copied, so it is re-encoded. In Chrome the result is a WebM file. Quality is usually close to the original but can be a little lower.
- Why does saving take as long as the clip?
- The clip is captured in real time while the video plays from your start time to your end time, so a one-minute section takes about a minute. Keep the tab open until the download starts.
- Which browsers does it work in?
- Browsers that can record a playing video, such as Chrome and Edge. If yours cannot, the page says so instead of saving a broken file.
