Free Online Video Splitter
Split a video into multiple equal parts online for free. Fast, lossless stream-copy splitting in your browser — no upload, no signup required.
Drop your video file here or click to browse
Our free online video splitter lets you divide a video into multiple equal parts directly in your browser — with no upload to any server and no watermarks added to the result. Choose anywhere from 2 to 10 segments and the tool splits the video at evenly spaced cut points, producing one downloadable file per segment. Everything runs locally using WebAssembly-powered FFmpeg with stream copy, so splitting is fast, lossless, and completely private.
Whether you’re breaking a long recording into shareable chunks, preparing segments for an Instagram carousel, or splitting a tutorial into bite-sized lessons, this browser-based tool handles it in seconds with no software installation and no account required.
How to Split a Video Online for Free
Splitting your video takes just a few steps:
- Upload your video — Drag and drop an MP4, MOV, AVI, WebM, or MKV file, or click to browse.
- Choose the number of segments — Pick anywhere from 2 to 10 equal parts.
- Split and download — Click Split Video and download each segment individually, or grab them all at once.
Key Features
- Free and Unlimited — Split as many videos as you need with no daily limits or subscription fees.
- No Upload Required — All processing happens locally in your browser. Your video stays private.
- 2 to 10 Equal Segments — Choose the exact number of parts you need.
- Lossless Stream Copy — Segments are extracted with
-c copy, so there’s no re-encoding and no quality loss. - Fast Processing — Because there’s no re-encoding, splitting is much faster than re-encoding tools.
- Multiple Formats Supported — Works with MP4, MOV, AVI, WebM, and MKV input files.
- Per-Segment Downloads — Each segment is a separate file with a clear
_part1,_part2naming scheme. - No Watermarks — Output segments are completely clean with no added branding.
How the Splitting Works
The tool uses FFmpeg’s stream-copy mode (-c copy) to extract each segment without re-encoding the video or audio. This means:
- No quality loss — The segments are byte-for-byte copies of the original streams.
- Fast processing — Splitting takes seconds even for long videos.
- Keyframe-accurate cut points — Because stream copy can only cut at keyframes, the actual cut point may be a fraction of a second off from the exact equal-split time. This is a normal trade-off of lossless splitting.
If you need frame-exact cut points, use the Video Trimmer instead, which re-encodes for precise start and end times.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I split a video without uploading it?
Yes — our free video splitter runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. You select a file from your device, and all processing happens locally. Nothing is ever uploaded to a server.
How many parts can I split a video into?
You can split a video into anywhere from 2 to 10 equal segments. For more parts, run the tool again on one of the resulting segments.
Will splitting reduce the video quality?
No — the tool uses stream copy (-c copy), which extracts the segments without re-encoding. The output segments have the exact same quality as the original video.
Why are the cut points slightly off from the exact equal-split time?
Stream copy can only cut at keyframes (the points where a complete frame is stored). The tool seeks to the closest keyframe before the requested cut time, so segments may start a fraction of a second earlier or later than the exact equal-split time. This is the standard trade-off for fast, lossless splitting.
Can I split a video at custom timestamps instead of equal parts?
Not in this tool — the splitter divides the video into equal segments. For custom start and end times, use the Video Trimmer to extract a specific section.
Does the audio stay in sync after splitting?
Yes — both video and audio streams are copied into each segment, so audio stays in sync. Each segment is a complete, playable video file.
