Content Studio
Edit, layer, and mix video & audio on a multi-track timeline — then export MP4. A Premiere Pro–style editor, right in your browser.
Content Studio is a free, browser-based multi-track video editor. Instead of converting one file at a time, you build a complete edit: lay video, image, and audio clips across stacked timeline tracks, trim and split them on a frame-accurate timeline, layer titles and overlays on top, mix audio, and export the whole thing to MP4. It's the closest thing to a Premiere Pro–style timeline that runs entirely in your web browser — no install, no signup, and nothing to learn before you start.
How Content Studio works — quick guide
What Content Studio is
A free, browser-based multi-track video editor. You assemble a full edit — video, images, titles, and audio across stacked timeline tracks — and export a single MP4. No install and no signup.
When to use it
Reach for Content Studio when one file isn’t enough: combining several clips, adding titles or background music, layering overlays, or trimming and re-ordering footage into a finished video.
Supported media types
Video (MP4, MOV, WebM, MKV), images (JPG, PNG, WebP), and audio (MP3, WAV, AAC). The final export is MP4 (H.264 video, AAC audio).
Step by step
- Create a project and choose a resolution (up to 4K) and frame rate (24/30/60 fps).
- Drag video, image, and audio files into the media bin.
- Drop clips onto the timeline tracks, then trim and split them at the playhead.
- Stack overlays and titles on higher tracks and add audio tracks to mix.
- Preview the composite, then export to MP4 and download.
Timeline & layers
The timeline is frame-accurate — the playhead and clip edges snap to the project frame rate. Tracks composite in stacking order, so a clip on a higher track renders over the ones below it. That’s how titles, logos, and picture-in-picture overlays sit on top of your base video.
Export
Exporting renders the whole sequence — every track, trim, and overlay — into one downloadable MP4 encoded with H.264 video and AAC audio.
Limitations
Content Studio is actively evolving. Core editing — multi-track timeline, trim/split, layering, audio mixing, and MP4 export — is available now. Advanced effects continue to be added over time.

How to use it
Create a project
Name it and pick a resolution (up to 4K) and frame rate (24/30/60 fps).
Import media
Drag video, image, and audio files into the media bin.
Build the timeline
Drop clips onto tracks, then trim, split, and arrange them around the playhead.
Layer & mix
Stack overlays and titles, add extra audio tracks, and preview the result.
Export MP4
Render the sequence to an MP4 and download it.
What this tool does
- Hosts a multi-track timeline where video, image, and audio clips stack on separate layers and play back together.
- Lets you trim clip in/out points, split clips at the playhead, and ripple-delete to close gaps.
- Layers overlays — additional video, images, and titles render on top of the base track in stacking order.
- Mixes multiple audio tracks alongside your video and previews the composite in real time.
- Exports the finished sequence as a single MP4 you can download and share.
Why it matters
- Most online media tools only do one operation at a time; real content needs several clips cut, layered, and mixed together.
- A timeline editor lets you tell a story — intro, b-roll, titles, music — instead of just converting a single file.
- Doing it in the browser means no multi-gigabyte install and no account, so you can go from raw clips to an exported MP4 in minutes.
Common use cases
Short-form social videos
Cut clips, add a title card and background music, and export a vertical or square MP4.
Tutorials and screen recordings
Trim dead air, stitch takes together, and overlay callout titles.
Highlight reels
Assemble the best moments from several clips into one continuous edit.
Simple promos
Layer a logo or text overlay over b-roll and mix in a voiceover or music bed.
Advanced details
- The timeline is frame-accurate: the playhead, clip boundaries, and split points snap to the project frame rate so cuts land where you expect.
- Tracks composite in stacking order — higher tracks render over lower ones — which is how overlays, picture-in-picture, and titles sit on top of your base footage.
- Preview playback is driven by a browser preview engine that composites the active clips on a canvas; the final export is encoded to H.264 MP4 with AAC audio.
- Projects, media references, and edit decisions are stored per project, so you can close the tab and reopen a recent project to keep working.
Why Media Manipulator
- A genuine multi-track timeline — not a single-clip trimmer dressed up as an editor.
- Runs in your browser with no install and no signup, and your media is processed on our own servers.
- Pairs with the rest of Media Manipulator: compress, transcode, transcribe, or strip metadata from your source or exported files in the same place.
