How to Split a Video

Drop, choose how to divide it, download the parts.

Drop your video in Drag the file onto the box or click to pick it. It opens straight from your disk, with no upload and no waiting.

Choose how to divide it Equal parts when you just want it in halves or quarters. Every so often when there is a size or length limit to stay under. Your own times when the breaks belong in particular places.

Check the plan line It tells you how many parts you will get and how long the shortest one is, which is the number that catches people out when the last part turns out to be nine seconds.

Pick Fast or Exact Fast does not rebuild the picture, so it is quick and lossless, but each part starts at the nearest keyframe. Exact starts every part precisely where you asked and takes longer.

Download the parts Each one gets its own row and its own button, and the zip button gives you all of them at once. They are numbered so they stay in order wherever you put them.

What to Know Before You Split

Including the things this tool cannot do.

In Fast mode each part begins at the nearest keyframe. A video only stores a complete picture every couple of seconds, and a part lifted out without rebuilding has to start at one of them. With ten parts that means ten small shifts, each a different size. If the parts have to line up exactly, use Exact.

The last part is usually shorter than the others. Splitting every five minutes out of a video that is twelve minutes long gives you five, five and two. That is arithmetic rather than a fault, and it is why the page shows you the shortest part before you start.

The parts are numbered with a leading zero for a reason. Part 01, 02 and so on sort correctly everywhere. Without the zero your file manager puts part 10 between part 1 and part 2, and the order on screen stops matching the order in the video.

Splitting does not shrink anything. Ten parts of a hundred megabyte video still add up to about a hundred megabytes. If you are splitting because a file is too big to send, check the limit applies per file and not per message.

The work happens on your own machine. Your video is opened by this page, not sent anywhere. That is why there is no upload bar, no queue and no waiting for a server. It is also why a big file leans on your own processor: nothing is being done for you somewhere else.

There is a real size ceiling, and it is your device, not us. The whole video has to fit in the browser's memory while it is being worked on, so roughly three hundred megabytes is comfortable on a laptop and far less on a phone. This page tells you where you stand the moment you pick a file.

The first run downloads the engine, later runs do not. Video work needs a real encoder, and that is a thirty megabyte download the first time you press the button. Your browser keeps it, so the second video starts straight away.

Leave the tab open. All of the work is in this page, so closing it or navigating away stops the job halfway. On a phone, switching apps can do the same thing, because the system is allowed to pause a background tab.

Key Features & Capabilities

What this tool does, and what it deliberately does not.

Equal parts, or by the clock Two, three, four, five or ten with one press, any number up to two hundred by typing it, or a new part every so many seconds or minutes.

Or split at your own times Paste a list of timecodes and the breaks land there. Useful when a recording has natural chapters that are nowhere near evenly spaced.

A mode that does not re-encode Fast lifts the parts out without rebuilding the picture, so a long video is split in seconds and every part keeps the original quality exactly.

Numbered so they stay in order Part 01 rather than part 1, which is what keeps ten parts sorting correctly in every file manager rather than putting 10 after 1.

One zip for all of them Download the parts one at a time, or take the lot in a single zip. The zip is stored rather than compressed, because video will not compress twice.

What it cannot do It cannot split by scene, by silence or by subject, because that means understanding what is in the video. And it cannot make the parts add up to less than the original.

About the Video Splitter

Splitting a video is one of those jobs with a very boring reason behind it. Almost nobody wants their video in pieces. They want it in pieces because something downstream will not take it whole: a messaging app with a size cap, a platform with a length limit, a form that rejects anything over a certain number of megabytes, or a two hour recording that really ought to have chapters.

Because the reason is usually a limit, the useful question is rarely how many parts do I want. It is how do I keep each part under the thing that is stopping me. That is why this page offers a part every so many minutes as a first class option rather than burying it, and why it tells you how long the shortest part will be before you start rather than after.

The work happens in the tab you are already looking at. FFmpeg has been compiled to WebAssembly, so your browser runs the same encoder most video software uses. Your file is opened from your own disk, divided by your own processor and saved back to your downloads folder. There is no upload, so no queue, no watermark and no account, and no copy of a two hour recording sitting on somebody else's disk.

Fast mode is worth understanding because on a long video the difference is enormous. Lifting the parts out without rebuilding the picture takes seconds and loses nothing at all, at the cost of each part starting at the nearest keyframe, which can be a second or two from where you asked. For splitting a lecture into chapters that is irrelevant. For anything that has to line up frame for frame, Exact is there instead, and the page says which is which rather than choosing for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything worth knowing about dividing a video into parts.

Choose Every so often and set a length that keeps each part under the limit. A rough guide is that the parts divide the size the same way they divide the time, so a hundred megabyte video cut into four parts gives roughly four twenty five megabyte files. Check the size on the first result and adjust if needed.

Because the video did not divide evenly. Splitting every five minutes out of twelve minutes gives five, five and two. If you want them all the same length, use Equal parts instead, which works out the length from the number of parts.

Not in Fast mode. The picture is copied across untouched, so the parts together are the same video as before, just in separate files. Exact mode rebuilds them and costs a little quality in exchange for cuts that land precisely.

You were in Fast mode. A part taken out without rebuilding has to begin at a keyframe, and a video only stores one every couple of seconds, so each part shifts back to the nearest one. Switch to Exact and every part begins on the frame you chose.

No. That means working out what is happening in the video, which is a completely different kind of job. This page divides by the clock or by times you give it, and says so rather than guessing badly.

Two hundred, which is far beyond anything useful. The real limit is patience: every part has to be written out, so a hundred parts in Exact mode will take a while even though each one is short.
