How to use this tool — step-by-step guide

How Extracting a Video Stream Works

Upload a video file and extract just the picture—no audio track. ALTools processes on your device with no upload and no account needed.

The tool reads the video container in the browser, isolates the video track, and tries stream copy first for a fast lossless pass. If the container or codec blocks copy, it re-encodes to H.264 MP4 so the result plays everywhere.

Create silent B-roll, prepare footage for a new soundtrack, pull video-only assets for editing, or archive picture without carrying audio you do not need.

Local extraction keeps licensed or sensitive footage private. Preview and re-run without sending source files to any server.

Download an MP4 containing video only—stream-copied when possible, otherwise H.264—ready for editors, overlays, or further processing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the video be re-encoded?

Usually not. We try to keep the original video encoding first. Re-encoding to MP4 (H.264) only happens if direct extraction is not possible.

Is audio included?

No — this tool exports video only, with all audio tracks removed.

Are files uploaded?

No. Processing happens entirely on your device.
