About Video to MP3

Pull the sound out of an MP4, MOV, MKV, WebM or other video and save it as MP3, M4A or WAV at 128, 192 or 320 kbps. The video is processed in your browser, so it is never uploaded.

How Video to MP3 works

Video to MP3 takes the first sound track of your video and saves it as an audio file. MP3 and M4A are compressed at the quality you choose; WAV keeps the sound uncompressed, which is best for editing but takes about 10 MB per minute.

The work is done by FFmpeg, the open-source media engine, running in your browser. The first time you use one of the video and audio tools your browser downloads the engine (about 10 MB); your video itself is read straight from your device and never uploaded.

When to use Video to MP3

  • Save the song or speech from a video you recorded at a concert, lecture or function.
  • Turn a recorded interview, meeting or class into an audio file you can listen to on the go.
  • Get the sound of a WhatsApp or Instagram video you have saved to use as a voice note or ringtone.
  • Prepare the audio of a video for transcription or editing.

Formats and quality

MP3
Plays on every phone, computer, car stereo and app. 192 kbps sounds like the original for most music.
M4A
AAC audio, Apple's usual format; slightly better quality than MP3 at the same size.
WAV
Uncompressed, so nothing is lost — the choice for editing, but files are large.
128 / 192 / 320 kbps
Higher numbers mean better sound and bigger files. 128 kbps is fine for speech.
