Keep clips short

Reversing needs the whole clip in memory, so it works best with videos under about a minute. Trim longer videos first.

Private, in-browser processing

This tool uses FFmpeg, the open-source engine behind most professional video software, running inside your browser. The first time you use it, the engine (about 30 MB) is downloaded once and then cached, so later conversions start straight away.

Frequently asked questions

Are my files uploaded?

No. Processing happens on your device with FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly, so your video and audio never leave your computer or phone.

Why does it take a while?

Video processing is demanding, and your browser does it on your own device instead of a big server. Short clips take seconds; long or 4K videos can take several minutes. Keep the tab open until it finishes.

Why does it fail on long videos?

Every frame must be held in memory to play it backwards. Trim the video to a shorter clip first.
