About Trim Media
Trim Media cuts an audio or video file down to a specific start and end time in seconds, returning just the segment you want. Use it to clip a highlight, drop dead air from the front of a recording, or grab a short section for sharing. It works in your browser on both audio and video, and nothing you trim is uploaded.

Frequently asked questions
Does it work on both audio and video?
Yes. It accepts audio and video files, and the trimmed output keeps the same media type as the input.
How do I set the cut points?
You specify the start and end times in seconds, and the tool returns the segment between them.
Is the trim lossless?
The output reflects the segment you selected. Depending on the format, trimming may re-encode the clip rather than copy it byte-for-byte, so treat it as a clean cut rather than a guaranteed stream copy.
Does my file get uploaded?
No. Trimming happens in your browser; the original and the clip both stay on your device.
Is the original file changed?
No. You get a new trimmed file back, and your source is left untouched.
