Trim a video or audio file

Keep just the good part. Drag two handles on the timeline, check it, and S Converter saves only that piece, in any format you like.

Trim a clip

  1. Choose Video or Audio in S Converter and add your file.
  2. Under Edit, press Trim.
  3. Drag the left handle to where it should start and the right handle to where it should end. Press ▶ to check; the times are shown under the timeline.
  4. Press Apply Segment.
  5. Pick a format (MP4, MP3 and so on) and press Convert.

Good to know

The cut applies to every file in the list, so trim one file at a time when each needs a different cut. Trimming also works when you convert a video to MP3, which is an easy way to save just one song from a recording.

Good to know

See what you cut

The video plays right in the trimmer.

Any output

Save the piece as MP4, GIF, MP3 or any other format.

Smaller files

A shorter clip is a smaller file, handy for sharing.

Questions

Does trimming reduce quality?

The trimmed part is converted with the quality you choose, the same as any conversion.

How do I make a ringtone?

Trim the song to the part you want, then convert to MP3. Or use the Ringtone preset, which keeps the first 30 seconds.
