About this Mute Video tool
Sometimes the picture is great but the sound isn't: traffic, wind, a private conversation, or copyrighted music that blocks an upload.
This tool drops the audio track and copies the video unchanged, so it finishes in a few seconds and the picture quality is identical.
How to use Mute Video
- Choose or drop the video.
- Click Remove sound.
- Download the silent video.

Frequently asked questions
Does muting reduce video quality?
No. The video stream is copied exactly.
Can I keep the audio separately?
Yes, use MP4 to MP3 to save the sound as an MP3 first.
Which formats work?
MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV and M4V.
Is my video uploaded?
No. The whole job runs inside your browser using your device's built-in video encoder, so the video never leaves your device.
