Fun fact
MP4 is QuickTime's file design wearing an international standards badge: MOV is effectively its parent.

Trimming MP4 without touching the quality

Flippy trims MP4 with stream copy: it slices at the nearest safe boundary and copies the data straight across: no re-encoding, no quality loss, and it's near-instant even on big files. Everything travelling inside the MP4 container makes the cut with it, soundtrack included.

Questions people ask

Does trimming an MP4 re-encode it?

No: Flippy uses stream copy, so the trimmed MP4 keeps the exact original quality and the cut takes seconds, not minutes.

Will I lose quality working with MP4 here?

None. Stream copy moves your MP4's data untouched; only the length changes.

Is this MP4 trimmer really free?

Yes: free for everyday use with no daily cap, no signup, and your files delete themselves from our servers within an hour.
