Video Splitter
Split a video into equal parts
What is Video Splitter?
Video Splitter is a free browser-based video tool from Farvixo that lets you split a video into equal parts. It uses an in-browser FFmpeg build compiled to WebAssembly, so even large clips are processed on your own machine and never uploaded. No account, no watermark and no per-file size limit imposed by a server.
How to use Video Splitter
Select a video file in Video Splitter. Conversion happens in your browser using WebAssembly, so even large files never get uploaded anywhere.
Choose the output format, resolution and bitrate — or start from a ready-made preset if you are not sure what to pick.
Start the conversion and watch the progress bar; longer clips take a little time because the work runs on your own machine. Download when it finishes.
Frequently Asked Questions
How should I split a video for social platforms?
Split by duration to match the platform limit — WhatsApp status at 30 seconds, for instance. Splitting into equal parts keeps the segments consistent, which matters when they will be posted as a series.
Does splitting lose quality?
Not when the split lands on keyframes and the streams are copied. Splitting at an exact arbitrary second requires re-encoding those boundaries, which costs a little.
Can I split at specific timestamps rather than evenly?
Yes. Enter the points where each cut should fall, and each segment is exported as its own file, delivered together as a ZIP.
Is my video uploaded?
No. FFmpeg runs inside your browser tab, so footage under NDA or containing people who did not consent to a third-party server stays on your machine.
Can I preview where the cuts will fall?
Yes. The timeline shows each split point against the video before you commit, which matters when a cut in the middle of a sentence would ruin a segment.
What you can use Video Splitter for
- Getting a clip under the size limit for WhatsApp, Gmail, Discord or a course upload
- Converting a recording to a format a specific player, editor or platform accepts
- Editors who want a quick change without opening a full desktop suite
- Handling confidential footage that must not be uploaded to an online converter
Video Splitter at a glance
- Tool
- Video Splitter — Video Tools
- Purpose
- Split a video into equal parts
- Input
- A single file (MP4, WebM, MOV, AVI, MKV)
- Output
- Video file in the selected container and codec
- Processing
- In your browser — files are never uploaded to a server
- Price
- Free, unlimited, no account required
- Limitations
- Bounded by your device's memory and CPU rather than a server quota; very large files may be slow on older hardware
Tips for better results
- Processing speed depends on your own CPU, since the work is local. A laptop on battery-saver will be noticeably slower.
- H.264 (MP4) is the safest choice for compatibility; VP9 or AV1 give smaller files but decode slowly on older devices.
- Leave the tab open and visible — a backgrounded tab gets throttled by the browser and the encode will crawl.
Common problems and how to fix them
The encode is very slow
Everything runs on your device rather than a server farm. Pick a lower resolution or a faster preset, keep the tab in the foreground, and close other heavy tabs.
The output has no sound
The chosen container cannot carry the source audio codec — WebM cannot hold AAC, for example. Re-encode the audio instead of copying the stream.
The browser ran out of memory
The clip is too large to hold in memory. Trim it into shorter segments and process them one at a time.
