Tips for Best Results

  • MP3 is compressed and produces smaller files, ideal for sharing and storage
  • WAV is uncompressed and preserves full audio quality, but creates larger files
  • For music or high-quality audio, use MP3 High (320 kbps) or WAV
  • For speech or podcasts, MP3 Medium (192 kbps) is usually sufficient
  • Extraction time depends on video length and format

Practical guide

What this tool is best for

Pull audio tracks from videos for editing, transcription prep, review, or reuse in a production workflow.

Inputs and outputs

Accepts: Browser-readable video files that FFmpeg.wasm can decode.

Exports: MP3 or WAV.

Privacy note

Audio extraction uses FFmpeg.wasm in the browser. This route uses isolation headers needed for the processor.

Common uses

  • - Extract narration from a screen recording.
  • - Create an audio-only review file from a video.
  • - Prepare a track for transcription or cleanup.

Limits to know

  • - The first FFmpeg load can take time.
  • - Some codecs may not decode in the browser build.
  • - Large videos require more memory and processing time.
