Drop in a video and get it back with no sound. The audio track is left out and the video track is copied into a new file as it is, so nothing is re-encoded and the picture doesn't change. It runs in your browser with Mediabunny, and the video is never uploaded.
How to use it
- Drop in a video, or click to choose one.
- Press Remove the sound.
- Check the before and after sizes, then download the file.
Honest limits
- The whole audio track goes. To mute only part of a video you need a video editor.
- Rare codecs that can't be copied are re-encoded to H.264 MP4, which takes longer and turns HDR into standard dynamic range.
- Needs WebCodecs: current Chrome, Edge, Safari 16.4+, or Firefox 130+ on a computer. Firefox for Android isn't supported yet.
Frequently asked questions
Is my video uploaded anywhere?
No. The sound is removed inside your browser tab and the new file is handed straight back to you. Nothing is sent to a server.
Does removing the sound lower the picture quality?
Not when the copy works, which is the case for H.264, HEVC, VP9 and AV1 video from phones, cameras and screen recorders. The video data is copied as it is into a new file without the audio track, so the picture is bit-for-bit the same. The page tells you when it had to re-encode instead.
Why is the file only a little smaller?
Sound takes far less space than picture. A phone video's audio is usually about 128 to 256 kbps against several megabits per second of video, so dropping it saves a few percent.
What format do I get back?
WebM stays WebM; MP4, MOV and most other videos come back as MP4 with the same video codec as the original.
Can I remove the sound from just part of the video?
Not here. This tool drops the whole audio track. To keep only a stretch of the video, use Trim Video and untick Keep the sound.
