About Trim Video
Trim Video lets you choose the exact section of a video you want to keep. Set start and end points from the preview, then use Fast cut for speed and no quality loss or Exact cut when tighter timing is more important.
How to use Trim Video
- 1
Choose an MP4, WebM or MOV video.
- 2
Move through the video and set the start and end points.

Choose Fast cut for a quick no-quality-loss trim or Exact cut for more precise timing.

Trim the video and download the selected clip.
Tips for better results
- Fast cut copies the original audio and video streams, so it is quick and does not reduce quality.
- Because Fast cut follows existing keyframes, the actual starting frame can be slightly earlier or later than the selected time.
- Use Exact cut when a precise start or end point matters more than processing speed.
Frequently asked questions
Does trimming reduce video quality?
Fast cut does not re-encode the video, so quality is preserved. Exact cut re-encodes the selected section to improve timing precision.
Why can Fast cut start a little away from the selected time?
Many video formats can begin a copied segment only at certain keyframes. Exact cut is designed for tighter timing.
Which video formats are supported?
The tool accepts MP4, WebM and MOV files. Playback and processing can still depend on the codecs used inside the file.
