About this mute-video tool

The Mute Video tool strips the sound out of a video and exports a permanently silent clip — right in your browser, with no upload, no watermark, and no software to install.

Sometimes you want the footage but not the audio — background chatter, music you can't share, or a voice you'd rather remove. Muting a video in a player only silences your own playback; this tool re-encodes the video with the audio track removed so it's silent for everyone. People use it to:

One honest trade-off of doing everything in the browser: re-encoding runs in real time, so a thirty-second clip takes about thirty seconds. In return, your video stays completely private and there's nothing to install.

How to use
  1. Upload a video with the file picker or drag it onto the drop zone.
  2. Pick an output format if you like — WebM is the default.
  3. Click Remove audio & export.
  4. Wait for the progress bar to finish.
  5. Download your silent video.
FAQ

No. Muting happens entirely in your browser using the canvas and MediaRecorder APIs, so the file never leaves your device.

Yes. The exported video is re-encoded with no audio track at all, so it is silent in every player — not just muted in one app.

Browsers re-encode video in real time through the MediaRecorder API, so a 30-second clip takes roughly 30 seconds. That is the trade-off for processing locally with no upload.

Removing audio requires re-encoding the video, which is lightly lossy, but the tool uses a high bitrate so the picture stays close to the original. Dropping the audio also makes the file a little smaller.

WebM (VP9 or VP8) works everywhere in modern browsers. On browsers that support MP4 recording, mainly Safari, an MP4 option appears too.
