Frequently Asked Questions
What video formats are supported?
We support most modern web-compatible formats, including MP4 (H.264), WebM, and MOV. If your browser can play it, we can usually trim it.
Will cutting the video reduce its quality?
Our goal is to preserve quality. For many formats, we perform a "stream copy" where possible, meaning no re-encoding occurs, and quality remains 100% identical to the source.
How long does it take to process?
Since there is no uploading involved, processing is often instant for short clips. Longer videos are processed at the speed of your computer, which is usually much faster than cloud converters.
