Frequently Asked Questions
Does cutting a video reduce its quality?
No. HappyScribe cuts the file without re-encoding, so the clip has exactly the same quality as the original.
Why does my clip start slightly earlier than I picked?
Because we cut without re-encoding, a video clip starts at the nearest keyframe, which can be a second or two before the point you chose. That is the trade-off for zero quality loss.
What video formats can I cut?
Any of 40+ video formats, and the clip is saved in the same format you upload. For a specific format, you can also use the dedicated MP4 cutter, MOV cutter, MKV cutter or WEBM cutter.
Can I remove a section from the middle?
Not in one step. The cutter keeps one continuous section. To drop a middle part, cut the two parts you want to keep separately.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes, in Safari on iPhone and Chrome on Android. No app needed.
Is there a length or file size limit?
There is no length limit. Large videos simply take longer to upload.
