What Does Trimming a Video Mean?

Trimming (or cutting) a video involves removing the beginning or end of a clip to focus on the most important content. Unlike "cropping" which changes the visual frame dimensions, trimming changes the duration of the video. It is the most fundamental editing task, essential for removing awkward pauses, bad takes, or irrelevant intro sequences.

Why Trim Videos Before Sharing?

  • Engagement: Short, snappy videos perform better on TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.
  • Clarity: Remove dead air or mistakes from the start/end of recordings.
  • File Size: Shorter videos are smaller and faster to upload.

Is This Video Trimmer Safe and Private?

Absolutely. Most online trimmers upload your video to a cloud server, process it there, and make you download it again. This risks your privacy and consumes huge amounts of data.

OnlineImageTools.net runs a specialized video engine (FFmpeg via WebAssembly) directly inside your web browser. Your video file is read from your disk, processed in your computer's memory, and saved back to your disk. It never travels over the internet.

Supported Video Formats

Our browser-based trimmer supports a wide range of popular container formats. Since we re-encode for precision, the output will typically be a high-compatibility MP4 file.
