How the Video Splitter works
This video splitter cuts one video into several shorter clips. Choose a number of equal parts, or type the timestamps where each cut should fall, press Render and download every part together in one zip. Each part is a normal video file. Everything runs in your browser and nothing is uploaded.
Video splitter: equal parts or exact cuts
Long recordings are awkward to share. Status updates and stories accept 15 to 60 seconds at a time, chat apps cap file sizes, and a two-hour lecture is easier to watch as chapters. "Equal parts" divides the length evenly, so a 3-minute clip split into 3 gives three 1-minute parts. "At timestamps" cuts exactly where you say.
Writing timestamps
Type each cut point in seconds, such as 45, or as minutes and seconds, such as 1:30. Separate them with commas or new lines. They can be in any order; the page sorts them and ignores any that fall outside the video. Three cut points give four parts.
What you get
Each part is named after the original with a number, such as "talk-part01.webm", and all of them come in one zip so the order is kept. Parts are WebM in Chrome, Edge and Firefox and MP4 in Safari. Splitting plays through the video, so it takes about as long as the clip. To keep only one section, the video trimmer is quicker, and to put parts back together, use the video merger.
FAQ
How do I split a video for Instagram or WhatsApp status?
Work out how many parts you need: a 2-minute video split for 30-second status updates needs 4. Choose Equal parts, type 4 and render. Upload the parts in order from the zip.
Can I split at the exact frame?
Cuts land within a frame or two of the time you give, because the page records the video as it plays. For most sharing that is invisible; for frame-accurate editing a desktop editor is the better tool.
Why do I get a zip instead of separate downloads?
Browsers often block a page from starting many downloads at once. One zip keeps every part together and in order. Most operating systems open a zip with a double-click.
