About Remove Audio from Video

Sometimes the picture is perfect and the sound is the problem: wind roaring over a scenic clip, a private conversation in the background of a family video, copyrighted music that will get a social post flagged, or narration you plan to replace. This tool strips the audio track from any video — completely, permanently, and entirely on your own device.

The key detail is how it does it. Most online tools re-encode your video to remove the sound, which takes ages and quietly degrades the picture. This tool performs a stream copy: the compressed video data is copied bit-for-bit into a new file while the audio track is simply left out. That means zero quality loss and dramatically faster processing — muting a video takes seconds, not minutes, because nothing is being re-compressed.

How it works & privacy

The page runs FFmpeg — the same open-source engine used by professional video software — compiled to WebAssembly so it executes inside your browser. Your video is read locally, the video stream is copied into a new container without its audio track, and the result is handed straight back to you. It never crosses the network: no upload, no queue, no server that keeps a copy of your family footage. That matters for videos more than almost anything else, because video files are exactly the kind of thing you don't want sitting on a stranger's server.

Common questions

How do I remove the sound from a video?

Drop the video in and download the muted copy: the audio track is removed while the video is copied bit-for-bit, so even large files finish in seconds and picture quality is untouched.

Does muting a video reduce its quality?

Not here: the video stream is copied rather than re-encoded, so the output is pixel-identical to the original, minus the sound.

Why remove audio from a video?

Background conversations, wind noise, music you don't have rights to post, and commentary that seemed funnier at the time: muting before sharing solves all of them.

What video formats are supported?

MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV, AVI, and more, with the output matching the input container where possible.

Can I add different audio afterward?

Yes: mute here, then use our Audio Overlay tool to lay music or a voiceover onto the silent video, which together amounts to replacing the soundtrack.
