How to Remove Audio from QuickTime Video with QuickTime Player

The most direct method to remove Audio from QuickTime video is to use QuickTime Player. This is a built-in player on Mac, but beyond a media player. It can edit a video, allowing you to make common movie edits like rearranging, rotating, trimming, splitting a movie into multiple clips, and manipulating each one individually. It can also record your screen, enabling you to capture your entire screen or just a portion of it.

Moreover, QuickTime Player can extract audio from your video. Here are the steps.

Step 1. Launch QuickTime Player on your Mac and open the video you want to work on.

Step 2. Once the video is opened in the QuickTime player, click Edit from the top menu and choose Remove Audio from the drop-down menu. Then your file is video only.

Step 3. Click the File menu and choose the Export As option to save the file.

Tips:
If you only want the audio part of a QuickTime video, you can choose Remove Video under the Edit tab to extract the audio from the video.
