Video Splitter — Cut One Video Into Several
Slice a long recording into equal parts or into segments you define. Splitting runs in your browser, so a two-hour recording does not need a two-hour upload before you can cut it up.
Why people split video
Usually because something downstream refuses the whole file. Upload limits are the most common reason, but so is repurposing: a long webinar or podcast becomes a series of clips, each short enough for a feed and self-contained enough to make sense alone.
- Getting under a platform upload cap without re-compressing the footage
- Cutting a long recording into per-topic or per-chapter segments
- Pulling short clips out of a webinar, stream or podcast for social
Split points that do not feel arbitrary
Equal parts are convenient and usually land mid-sentence. If the segments are going to be watched by someone, cutting on natural breaks — the end of a thought, a pause, a topic change — is worth the extra minute. The silence remover is a quick way to find where those pauses are.
How to use it
- Load your video. Open the Video Splitter and select the recording you want to divide.
- Choose how to split. Split into equal parts, or set your own start and end points for each segment.
- Export the segments. Each segment renders locally and saves to your device.
Frequently asked questions
Does splitting reduce quality?
Cutting on existing keyframes copies the original video data without re-encoding, so there is no quality loss. Cutting at an arbitrary frame requires re-encoding the affected section.
Can I split a very large file?
Yes. Because there is no upload step, file size is limited only by your device memory rather than by a server quota.
Can I split by chapter?
Set your own start and end points for each segment to cut on chapter boundaries rather than on equal divisions.
