How to use Video Cropper

  1. Choose a video file.
  2. Enter the crop area: left, top, width and height in pixels.
  3. Click Process Video to re-record the cropped area.
  4. Download the cropped video.

Honest limit: the cropped video is re-recorded to WebM in your browser (browsers cannot natively re-encode MP4), so output is a .webm file.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Video Cropper free?

Yes, it is 100% free with no sign-up. Your files and data stay in your browser.

How do I know the pixel values to crop?

The video size is shown after loading. Left + width must not exceed the full width, and top + height must not exceed the full height.

Is my file uploaded to a server?

No. This tool runs entirely in your browser — your file is never uploaded.

Can I crop to a square for Instagram?

Yes — enter equal width and height, e.g. 720×720 centred in the frame.
