Mute video

Remove audio from a video

Screen Recording App icon

Drop in a clip and get a silent copy back. It is muted in your browser - nothing is uploaded.

Sometimes you just need the picture without the sound - background chatter, music you cannot share, or a voice you would rather drop. Most "mute video" sites upload your clip to a server to do it. This one strips the audio on your own device with ffmpeg compiled to WebAssembly, so the video never leaves your computer. It copies the video without re-encoding, so it is fast and keeps full quality. Free, no signup, no watermark. It is the same private, local-first approach as our screen recorder.

Nothing is uploaded. The video is muted on your device.

Choose a video or drop it here MP4, WebM, MOV and more. Nothing is uploaded.

Private by design

Nothing is uploaded.

Your video is muted in your browser tab and never sent to a server. It stays on your device.

Fast and lossless

No re-encode.

It copies the video and drops the audio track, so it is quick and keeps the original picture quality.

No install, no signup

Just a web page.

No app, no extension, no account, and no watermark. Works on locked-down computers too.

How it works

Three steps, all in the browser. The first run downloads the ffmpeg engine (about 30 MB) once; after that it starts instantly.

When this helps

Recording something new?

Our screen recorder lets you record without the microphone in the first place, so you can capture a silent screen demo from the start - all on your device.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about muting a video here.

Is my video uploaded to a server?

No. The audio is removed entirely in your browser using ffmpeg compiled to WebAssembly. Your video is read from your device, muted on your device, and saved back to your device. Nothing is uploaded, and there is no account.

Will muting reduce the video quality?

No. It copies the video stream as-is and only drops the audio, so there is no re-encoding and no quality loss. It is also why it is so fast.

What format do I get back?

The same container as your input where possible (for example MP4 in, MP4 out), so quality and compatibility are preserved. For unusual inputs it falls back to MP4.

Do I need to install anything?

No. It is a normal web page with no app, no browser extension, and no admin rights. The first run downloads the ffmpeg engine, about 30 MB, to your browser cache, then it is ready immediately next time.

Does the result have a watermark?

No. There is no watermark and no signup. You get a clean, silent copy of your video.
