Video Splitter

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Upload your video. Drag and drop a video file or click to browse. Supports MP4, MOV, WebM, and other common formats up to 500MB.

Step 2: Choose split method. Select "Equal Parts" to automatically divide into 2-10 segments of equal duration, or "Custom Split Points" to manually set exactly where to split.

Step 3: Set split points. For equal parts, select the number of segments. For custom splits, click on the timeline or enter timestamps to add split markers where you want the video divided.

Step 4: Process and download. Click "Split Video" to generate all segments. Download the ZIP archive containing all your clips, numbered in order.

Equal parts mode. Automatically divides the video into segments of equal duration. Choose 2-10 parts. A 10-minute video split into 5 parts creates five 2-minute clips. Quick and simple for uniform divisions.

Custom split points. Place split markers exactly where you want. Ideal when your video has natural chapter breaks, topic changes, or segments of varying length. Full control over where each clip begins and ends.

Combining approaches. Start with equal parts as a baseline, then switch to custom mode to fine-tune the split points. This gives you a quick starting framework with precise control.

Splitter (this tool). Divides one video into multiple SEPARATE output files. Nothing is discarded—the entire video becomes multiple clips. Use for creating series or episodes.

Video Trimmer. Keeps ONE portion by setting start and end points. The rest is discarded. Creates a single output file. Use when you only need one segment.

Video Cutter. Removes unwanted sections and joins the remaining parts into ONE file. Content is discarded and the rest is merged. Use to remove mistakes or unwanted content.

Creating multi-part series. Turn a long video into a series of shorter parts. Perfect for "Part 1, Part 2" content or episodic formats on social media. This is a popular strategy for course creators and coaches building their audience.

Meeting platform limits. Split long videos to fit within platform duration limits. Each resulting clip can be uploaded separately or as a playlist.

Repurposing content. Break a comprehensive video into topic-specific clips. A 30-minute tutorial becomes five focused clips, each covering one topic. Learn advanced repurposing strategies in our content distribution guide.

Easier editing. Split very long recordings into manageable chunks for editing. Process each segment separately, then reassemble if needed using the Video Merger.

Chapter-based distribution. Create natural chapter breaks for longer content. Viewers can watch one chapter at a time or share specific sections.

Split at natural breaks. Place split points where topics change, during pauses, or at scene transitions. This makes each clip feel complete rather than arbitrarily cut.

Include context. When splitting tutorials or educational content, consider leaving a few seconds of overlap so viewers can follow along even if they start from any part.

Name your files. The ZIP contains numbered files (part_1.mp4, part_2.mp4, etc.). Rename them after downloading to describe each segment's content.

Check each clip. After splitting, play through each output file to ensure the split points are clean and no important content was cut mid-sentence or mid-action.
