Frequently Asked Questions
What video formats does the extractor support?
Any format your browser can decode: typically MP4, WebM, MOV, MKV, and AVI. The browser's built-in codec handles the video container, so no additional software is needed.
Can I extract audio from an MP4 file?
Yes. MP4 is the most commonly used format and is natively supported by all modern browsers. The audio track (usually AAC-encoded inside the MP4 container) is decoded and re-encoded to WAV automatically.
Why does the tool export WAV instead of MP3?
Encoding MP3 requires a third-party JavaScript library. WAV encoding uses a simple 44-byte RIFF header with no external dependencies, keeping the tool fast and lightweight. Convert the WAV to MP3 afterwards with any audio converter.
Will the extracted audio cover the full length of the video?
Yes. The entire audio track is decoded and exported. If you only need a portion, use the Audio Trimmer or Audio Cutter after extraction.
Can I extract audio from very large video files?
The tool loads the entire video into browser memory as an ArrayBuffer. Files up to a few hundred MB work on most modern devices. Very large files may cause the browser to run low on memory.
