How to use the Mute Video

  1. Drop your file into the box, or click to choose one.
  2. Choose the options you want; the defaults suit most files.
  3. Click the button. The first time, the media engine (about a 9 MB download) loads once and is then cached.
  4. Wait for the progress bar, preview the result and download it. Your file never leaves your device.

Frequently asked questions

Will the picture quality change?

No. Only the audio track is removed; the video stream is copied exactly as it was.

Can I lower the volume instead of removing it?

This tool removes the sound completely. To keep the sound but replace it, mute the video here and add new audio in a video editor.

Does removing audio make the file smaller?

A little. Audio is usually only a small part of a video file, so expect a modest reduction. To make the file much smaller, use the video compressor.

Why mute a video?

To remove background noise, private conversations or copyrighted music before sharing, or to make clips for presentations and websites that autoplay silently.

Are my videos uploaded?

No. Every tool runs in your browser using ffmpeg.wasm and your browser's own recording features. Your files never leave your device, which also means there's no upload wait.

Why does the first conversion take longer?

The first time you use a conversion tool, your browser downloads the media engine (about 9 MB). It's then cached, so later conversions start straight away.

How big can files be?

Up to 1 GB. Processing speed depends on your computer: short clips take seconds, while long HD videos can take several minutes. A desktop browser is faster than a phone.

Is there a watermark or time limit?

No watermarks, no sign-up and no limits on how many files you process.
