Part 3: How to mute video from YouTube using Wondershare UniConverter?

mute video from YouTube on phone

Although the Android and iOS apps above are helpful, they lack all essential video editing features. What's worse, these apps can't mute videos directly from YouTube. But with Wondershare UniConverter, you can learn how to mute YouTube video on phone or computer with a mere click. First, this app can download videos directly from YouTube, Vine, Vimeo, and other common social media channels. Then, after extracting a video, you can mute it by simply moving the volume slider. You can also adjust the human voice and stereo of your video. Plus, users can edit their YouTube videos further by cutting, trimming, rearranging, cropping, adding filters, and so much more.

Below is how to mute YouTube video using Wondershare UniConverter:

Step 1 Import the YouTube video clip.

First, install and run UniConverter on your computer before clicking the Downloader tab. Then, visit YouTube using your web browser and copy the video link. Now go back to UniConverter and click the Add button. Once the video is processed successfully, click the Download button to extract it to your local storage. Remember, UniConverter allows you to download MP4 videos in varying resolutions.

Import the YouTube video clip

Step 2 Add the video to the Video Editor function.

Next, click the Finished tab to view your downloaded video clip. After that, right-click the video, choose Add, and then select Video Editor to move it to the Video Editors function. Again, the video transfer process is instant.

Add the video to the Video Editor

Step 3 Mute the YouTube video.

Now it's time to remove the background sound or voice narration from your video. To do that, press the Crop or Effect icons on the video thumbnail before clicking the Audio tab. Here, locate the volume bar and slide it to the left to mute the video. You can also customize the human voice and stereo. If you only want to remove the noise of your video, just click the Remove background noise option.

Step 4 Continue customizing the video (optional).

Do you want to edit the video further to make it stand out? Start by clicking the Crop button to rotate, flip, and resize your video. Next, click the Effect tab to apply 30+ filters to your video and adjust the contrast, brightness, saturation, playback speed, etc. In addition, click the Watermark button to personalize your video with unique text and image logos. And above all, click the Trim icon on the video thumbnail to cut and rearrange the video sections.

Continue customizing the video

Step 5 Convert and save the YouTube video clip.

If you want to convert YouTube to a different video format, click Output Format, tap Video, and then choose a video format and resolution. You can also export the video to a device-optimized format like iPhone, Samsung, Blackberry, HTC, and more by choosing your phone's name under the Device tab. Now finish up by selecting a folder path on File Location and then click Start All to save your new video. And that's how to mute a YouTube video on macOS and Windows.

Part 4: FAQs about muting video from YouTube

Q1: How can I remove audio from video on Android?

Ans: First of all, you can remove audio from video on Android using one of the dedicated apps above. But if that doesn't work for you, use the Google Photos app to watch videos in muted mode. To do that, launch the app, choose a video to watch, and then click the "Edit" button. After that, click "Next" to skip the trimming feature and press the "Soundtrack" button. Finally, click the "Audio" icon to watch your video in silent mode.

Q2: How do I mute video on Mac for free?

Ans: You can mute a video on Mac using Wondershare UniConverter. But you can also use the pre-installed QuickTime Player to mute a video if you don't mind working with limited video editing functions. Just load your video, click the "Edit" tab, and then choose "Remove Audio." Now save your video and enjoy.

Q3: How to mute a video from YouTube in Windows 10?

Ans: Use Windows Movie Maker to remove audio from videos quickly and easily on PCs. But unfortunately, Windows 10 users will need to use a third-party app to mute video sounds because Windows 10 no longer supports WMM. In that case, use Wondershare UniConverter to mute and edit videos.

Conclusion

These are the most effective methods on how to mute a YouTube video on a phone or computer. But as discussed before, the dedicated apps are limited only to mobile phones and offer few video editing options. Also, users must first extract YouTube videos using other means to edit them using the apps. So, use Wondershare UniConverter to enjoy a full-featured platform that can do almost anything.
