Audio Sync Fix

Lips not matching the words? Slide the audio offset until it locks in, A/B test original vs fixed live, then export a corrected video. Free, private, no watermark.

Fix out-of-sync audio

All processing is on-device. Fixes a constant offset (the common case). If the drift grows over the video, the clocks differ and a fixed offset won't be enough — see the FAQ.

Video file MP4, WebM — the clip whose audio is out of sync

How it works

1

Load the drifting clip

Drop in the video whose audio lags or leads. The picture plays on screen while a separate audio track plays with your offset applied — so you hear exactly what the export will sound like.

2

Dial in the offset

Drag the slider (or nudge ±50 ms) until the lips lock with the words. Flip between Original and Fixed with one tap to confirm the fix before you commit to an export.

3

Export the corrected file

Click export: the video plays through in real time while the shifted audio is captured alongside the picture, producing a corrected WebM you can upload anywhere.

Why videos go out of sync — and when a fixed offset is enough

Most lip-sync problems come from the recording chain, not the file itself. Screen recorders, capture cards and Bluetooth audio each add their own latency: the picture takes one path through the hardware, the sound takes another, and they arrive a few hundred milliseconds apart. Because that delay is the same for the whole recording, one constant offset fixes it completely — shift the audio by minus the delay and every lip matches again. This is the case this tool handles, and it covers the large majority of "my recording is out of sync" complaints.

The harder case is drift: in sync at the start, noticeably off ten minutes later. That happens when the audio and video clocks run at slightly different rates — say the audio was captured at 44.1 kHz but stamped as 48 kHz — so the gap grows linearly with time. No single offset can fix drift; you need to re-time-stretch the audio, which is what desktop tools like UniConverter sell and what VLC deliberately does not do (VLC only shifts playback, never the file). If your video drifts, the honest fix is to note the offset at the start and at the end, compute the rate difference, and re-encode with ffmpeg's atempo filter — a desktop job this browser tool doesn't attempt.

A final note on the export: browsers can only write WebM, so the corrected file is a real-time re-encode — the video plays through once while the shifted audio is captured. That means export takes as long as the clip, and the video track is re-compressed (a generation of quality loss, usually invisible at these bitrates). The audio, though, is captured straight from the shifted playback with no extra processing. Keep the tab focused during export, and for clips over 15 minutes consider splitting first — a crashed tab loses the whole pass.

Sync fixed, two neighbours finish the job: the Audio Speed Changer stretches or tightens a track to fit the cut without a pitch wobble, and the Party Mix Maker crossfades a queue of finished songs into one continuous set.

Guides for This Tool

Frequently asked questions

How do I know which direction to shift the audio?
Watch the lips. If the sound arrives after the mouth moves, the audio is late — move the slider toward negative (advance audio). If the sound arrives before the mouth moves, the audio is early — move toward positive (delay audio). The live A/B toggle lets you flip between original and fixed instantly, which makes the difference obvious.
My audio drifts gradually — can this fix that?
This tool applies one constant offset, which fixes recordings where the sync is off by a fixed amount — the common case with capture cards and screen recorders. If the drift grows over time (in sync at the start, seconds off by the end), the audio and video have different clock rates and need time-stretching, which this tool does not do.
What format is the exported video?
WebM (VP9/VP8 video with Opus audio), re-encoded in real time while the corrected audio plays. It plays in all modern browsers and uploads to YouTube and most platforms. Free converters like HandBrake can remux it to MP4 if you need that container.
How long does the export take?
The export is a genuine real-time re-encode: your video plays through once while the shifted audio is captured alongside it. A 3-minute video takes about 3 minutes. Keep the tab focused while it runs.
Is my video uploaded anywhere?
No. Loading, preview syncing, the offset shift and the re-encode all happen locally in your browser. Your footage never leaves your device.
