cut beginning or end of video
Not every trim is about isolating a highlight — often you just need to remove a slow countdown at the start, a shaky first second before recording stabilized, or dead air at the end after you stopped talking but kept recording. This page covers that specific, simpler case.

To cut just the beginning, leave End at (or near) the video's actual total length and only move Start forward past the part you want removed — for example, Start at 3 to skip the first three seconds, with End left at the full duration. To cut just the end, leave Start at 0 and pull End back to where you want the video to actually stop.
If you don't know your video's exact total length in seconds, play it back once in any video player and note the total duration shown, then use that number (or a couple of seconds less, to leave margin) as your End value when only trimming the start.
This is one of the simplest, lowest-risk trims to get right, since you're only moving one boundary instead of isolating a precise clip in the middle — a slight overshoot on Start or undershoot on End just means a fraction of a second of extra footage remains, rather than missing the moment you actually wanted.
The CRF quality slider still applies here the same as any other trim — if you're only removing dead time and not aiming for a smaller file, a lower CRF value (18–22) keeps the remaining footage close to its original quality.
Top benefits
- Remove a slow intro or trailing dead air without touching the rest of the video.
- Simple, low-risk adjustment — move just one boundary instead of isolating an exact middle clip.
- Keep quality close to the original with a lower CRF value, since this trim usually isn't about shrinking file size.
How to apply this keyword workflow
- To cut the start: set Start past the unwanted portion, leave End at the video's full length.
- To cut the end: leave Start at 0, pull End back to where the video should actually stop.
- Use a lower CRF (18–22) if quality matters more than file size for this trim.
- Run and download the result.
Best use cases
- Removing a countdown or slow intro before the actual content starts.
- Cutting off dead air or silence left at the end of a recording.
- Trimming a shaky first second before the camera or screen recording stabilized.

FAQ
How do I remove just the first few seconds of a video?
Set Start to the number of seconds you want to skip, and leave End at (or near) the video's full length.
How do I remove just the end of a video?
Leave Start at 0, and pull End back to the timestamp where the video should actually stop.
What if I don't know the video's exact length?
Play it back once in any video player to see the total duration, then use that number (or slightly less, for margin) as your End value.
Will this affect quality if I'm not trying to shrink the file?
Use a lower CRF value (18–22) to keep the remaining footage close to its original quality, since this kind of trim usually isn't about reducing size.
Is my video uploaded to a server?
No. Trimming runs entirely in your browser using FFmpeg WebAssembly.
