About the Video Trimmer
Trim a video to a start/end range by re-encoding just that section in your browser (WebM output).
The Video Trimmer is part of the Video Tools collection on Tool Magic Lab. Video utilities that run in your browser: metadata, thumbnails/screenshots, trimming, resizing, watermarking and WebM/MP4 re-encoding via the MediaRecorder API, plus bitrate, size, duration and aspect-ratio calculators. Nothing is uploaded.
This tool processes your video in your browser with the Canvas and MediaRecorder APIs. Files are never uploaded. Re-encoding runs in real time and outputs WebM (MP4 only where the browser genuinely supports encoding it).
