Remove the sound from a video

Take the audio out of a video, keeping the picture exactly as it is.

Drop a video here or click to choose files

Runs entirely on your device using your browser’s built-in video engine (WebCodecs). Needs a recent Chrome, Edge, Safari, or Firefox on desktop.

Background chatter, music that would get a post taken down, a conversation that shouldn’t be in the clip: removing the sound solves all of them in one step.

The picture isn’t re-encoded. The video packets are copied straight into a new file without the audio track, so it’s quick even for long clips and the quality is bit-for-bit identical.

If you’d rather keep the sound but separate it, the video-to-MP3 tool does the opposite job.

How to use it

  1. Drop in your video.
  2. Press Convert — the audio track is dropped.
  3. Download the silent video.

Frequently asked questions

Does muting reduce the video quality?

No. The picture is copied across untouched; only the audio track is left out.

Why is it so much faster than compressing?

Because nothing is re-encoded. Removing a track is a container operation — it rewrites the packaging, not the content.

Can I replace the sound with music instead?

Not here. This tool removes; adding a new soundtrack is a video-editing job.

What formats work?

MP4, MOV, WebM and MKV all work in a recent Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox on desktop.
