Frequently Asked Questions
What's the maximum file size I can upload?
The tool can handle files up to 500MB, though larger files may take longer to process depending on your device's capabilities.
Will cutting affect video quality?
When using stream copy (which we use when possible), there's no quality loss. The output maintains the same quality as the input.
Can I cut multiple segments from one video?
Currently, you can cut one segment at a time. To create multiple segments, you'll need to process the video multiple times.
What happens to the audio when I cut a video?
The audio is automatically trimmed along with the video, maintaining synchronization.
Is my data secure?
Yes! All processing happens locally in your browser. Your files are never uploaded to our servers, ensuring complete privacy and security.
Can I undo a cut?
Once you download the cut video, the original remains unchanged. You can always go back to the original file if needed.
