Video Audio Remover

Upload a video and remove its audio track entirely, producing a silent video in MP4 or WebM with the picture untouched. Useful for videos you'll re-score with different music, screen recordings with distracting system sounds, or clips you need to share without their original soundtrack for licensing reasons. Everything runs on-device using the browser's native WebCodecs API, no upload involved.

How it works

  1. 1

    Upload a video file and let it load in the player.

  2. 2

    Pick MP4 or WebM as the output container.

  3. 3

    Click 'Remove audio'.

  4. 4

    The tool re-encodes the video-only stream, with no audio track at all, into a downloadable file.

Real encoding, no plugins or uploads needed

Rather than relying on a heavyweight WebAssembly build of FFmpeg, this tool uses the browser's own native WebCodecs API to read the video, discard its audio track, and re-encode a clean video-only file without ever sending your video to a server.

One button, one job

There's no trimming, cropping, or quality menu here on purpose: the whole point of this tool is to take any video and hand you back the exact same picture with the audio track gone, so the interface is just a single clear action.

Frequently asked questions

Does this just mute the volume, or actually delete the audio track?

It actually removes the audio track from the file during re-encoding, not just sets its volume to zero. The resulting MP4 or WebM has no audio track present at all.

Does removing audio happen on a server?

No. Reading the file, stripping the audio track, and re-encoding all happen entirely client-side in your browser tab using WebCodecs, so the video is never uploaded anywhere.

Why would I want a video with no audio track at all, instead of just muting it in a player?

A file with no audio track is smaller, avoids accidentally shipping licensed music or background chatter when you redistribute the clip, and plays back silent everywhere without relying on the viewer's player to respect a mute setting.

Does this change the video quality or frame rate?

No deliberate changes are made to the video stream beyond re-encoding it; the picture, resolution, and frame rate stay the same as the source.

What if my browser doesn't support MP4 or WebM encoding?

The tool checks what your browser can actually encode before you export and only offers the formats that will work. Try a recent version of Chrome, Edge, Firefox, or Safari if neither is available.
