Video: tools and formats
Everything we can do with Video files. Most of it right in your browser, with nothing uploaded.
Tools
- Convert videoTurn a video into MP4, WebM or MKV. MP4 plays everywhere, WebM is for the web, MKV is what you usually need to open somewhere else.
- Compress videoFit a recording into a given number of megabytes — to send by email or messenger. We work out the bitrate for your limit and encode in two passes to hit it.
- Resize videoConvert a recording to 1080p, 720p, 480p or 360p. Width follows the original proportions, so nothing gets stretched. Upscaling is refused: it adds no detail and only inflates the file.
- Trim videoCut out a fragment by timecodes. The stream is copied without re-encoding, so it is fast and lossless. If the cut cannot land on a keyframe, we re-encode and say so.
- Remove audio from videoDrop the sound track. The picture is copied as is — no quality loss and no waiting.
- Video to GIFBuild a GIF from a fragment. The palette is generated for your specific video in a separate pass — without that you get noise instead of a picture.
- Add subtitles to videoBurn subtitles into the picture or attach them as a track. Burned-in subtitles show everywhere, even where nobody turns them on; attached ones the viewer can switch off, and the picture is not re-encoded.
- Video thumbnailGrab a frame for a cover or preview. Exactly one frame is decoded, so an hour of video costs no more than a minute.
