Video speed in one step

x0x.to is a minimal tool for changing video speed: drop a file, pick a factor from x1.5 to x16, take the MP4. Everything is computed in the browser, the file is never uploaded and there is no account.

From 1.5x to 16x, with nothing uploaded. The file stays on your device and the result is saved as MP4.

Slow down video

Stretch a moment anywhere from one and a half to sixteen times and see what the eye is too slow to catch.

Slow down video

Speed up video

Squeeze a long recording into a short clip: one and a half to sixteen times faster.

Speed up video

The same thing without a browser

When you have many files, very large ones, or you want a script, ffmpeg on your own machine is the better tool. Below are the same modes as on the site: duplicate, blend and motion-compensated interpolation. Swap in your own file names.

Without a browser

Slow down or speed up video right in your browser

A four character address is easy to type from memory on any device, and the page asks for no login, no settings and no learning curve. Open, drop, done: two screens of scrolling from start to finished file.

Works on Mac, Windows, Linux, iPhone and Android. All you need is a current browser.

Why this is safe

  • Files never leave your device
  • Nothing is uploaded anywhere
  • No watermarks
  • No sign-up, no email
  • Free, with no cap on how many files

How it works

Not a single byte of your video goes over the network. Everything below happens inside your browser tab.

  1. The file opens locally

    You pick a video and the browser reads it through the File API, like any file on disk. No request carries your file to a server: the page itself is static, and from there only your device does the work.

  2. The container is unpacked

    The MP4 or MOV is split into video packets, and the headers give up the codec, frame rate, rotation and color space. From those we build a plan: how many frames you will get and how long it should take.

  3. Frames are decoded with WebCodecs

    The browser's VideoDecoder turns packets into frames with hardware acceleration. Frames live in the tab's memory and are closed the moment they are used, so memory does not run away.

  4. New frames are built in between

    Duplicate repeats a frame, blend cross-fades neighbours, and motion mode computes motion vectors on the GPU through WebGPU. These new frames are what make the movement smooth.

  5. The result is encoded back to MP4

    VideoEncoder writes H.264 at a constant frame rate with a keyframe every two seconds, it is wrapped into an MP4, and it lands in your downloads. No copy is left anywhere.

Frequently asked questions

Is this free?

Completely. There are no paid tiers, no cap on how many files you run, and no watermarks. Your own computer does the work, so there is nothing for us to charge for.

Is it safe? What happens to my video?

The video is processed inside the tab and is never sent anywhere. We physically cannot receive it: the server only holds HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Close the tab and nothing is left behind.

Is my video really not uploaded?

Really. It is easy to check: open developer tools, go to the Network tab and run a job. No request carries the file. You can even go offline after the page loads and processing still works.

Does it work on iPhone and on a MacBook?

Yes. On a MacBook it works in Safari, Chrome and Edge, HEVC from the camera included. On iPhone it needs Safari 17 or newer, and the tab has to stay in the foreground, because iOS stops the work in the background. Trim long clips first on a phone.

Which browsers are supported?

Chrome, Edge and other Chromium browsers from version 94, Safari 17 and newer, and Firefox with limits. WebCodecs is what matters; without it the ffmpeg.wasm fallback kicks in, which is slower.

Why does HEVC not work in Firefox?

Firefox does not decode HEVC through WebCodecs. That is a browser limitation, not a site one, and iPhone footage is often HEVC. Open the file in Chrome, Edge or Safari, or convert it to H.264.

Why is my portrait video sideways?

MP4 stores rotation as a separate flag and plenty of software ignores it. We read that flag and rotate the actual picture while encoding, so the result opens the right way up everywhere, old players included.

What is the maximum file size?

There is no hard limit, only your device's memory. On a desktop, files up to a couple of gigabytes are comfortable; on a phone, stay within a few hundred megabytes. If memory looks tight, we warn you before the job starts.

Why is the output so long?

Slowing down 8 times turns 10 seconds into 80, and 16 times gives you over two minutes. They all produce the same number of frames (x8 runs at 60 frames per second, x10 at 48, x16 at 30), so processing time and file size come out close. If that is longer than you need, pick a smaller factor (x1.5, x2, x4 and x6 are there) or trim the source first.

Can I do the same thing without a browser?

You can. The "Without a browser" page has ready ffmpeg commands for macOS, Windows and Linux: the same three modes, plus variable frame rate, HDR and rotation. For batches that is the better route.
