Best for
Reframing a centered subject for vertical, square, portrait, widescreen, or 4:3 delivery when losing outer image area is acceptable.
Input → output
Source video becomes a center-cropped H.264 MP4 at the selected aspect ratio, with even output dimensions and AAC audio.
Quality tip
Preview faces, captions, controls, and action near the edges. A centered crop works best when the subject stays near the middle.
Know before running
The crop permanently discards outer pixels and offers no custom focal point, pan, or keyframed tracking. It re-encodes both video and audio into MP4.
Next step
Fade in from black to give the newly framed clip a deliberate opening.

Frequently asked questions

Is Crop to aspect ratio free? Is there a watermark?
Yes — Crop to aspect ratio is free to use with no sign-up or watermark. Very large files can still be limited by your browser's available memory and processing resources.
Do my files get uploaded to a server?
No. Crop to aspect ratio runs entirely in your browser with WebAssembly, so your MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV file never leaves your device and nothing is stored or seen by us.
What can I put in, and what do I get out?
Crop to aspect ratio accepts MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV and gives you back a MP4 file. You can also set aspect ratio before you run it. Actual codec support depends on what the bundled engine or browser decoder can read.
Can I control the output?
Yes — you can adjust aspect ratio, so you decide the balance between file size and quality.
