## 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.

## Specifications

| Property | Value |
| --- | --- |
| 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 |

## How to use Video Splitter

1. **Load your video** — Select a video file in Video Splitter. Conversion happens in your browser using WebAssembly, so even large files never get uploaded anywhere.
2. **Pick format and quality** — Choose the output format, resolution and bitrate — or start from a ready-made preset if you are not sure what to pick.
3. **Convert and save** — 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.

## Use cases

- 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

## Tips

- 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

- **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.

## FAQ

### 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.
