您是否曾经想向朋友或同事发送一段简短而重要的YouTube 视频(YouTube video)片段，而不将其链接到整个视频？虽然链接到YouTube 视频(YouTube video)的特定时间戳是可能的，但并非每台设备都支持它，并且可能会出现故障。
除了制作可与朋友分享的视频剪辑外，裁剪和修剪YouTube 视频(YouTube videos)也是许多病毒式营销人员和影响者使用的策略。您可能已经看到Twitter 用户发布(Twitter user)部分视频并获得数千条转发的实例，对吧？他们如何使它看起来如此简单？
要裁剪和修剪YouTube 视频(YouTube video)，不需要使用Vegas Pro等程序的专业知识。您所需要的只是一个视频链接(video link)，并知道哪种视频修剪网络服务是最好的。
在本文中，我们将介绍两个最佳网站，它们可让您即时修剪和裁剪YouTube 视频(YouTube video)，而无需下载任何特殊应用程序。
YT 刀具(YT Cutter)(YT Cutter)
YT Cutter是我们挑选的最佳整体基于网络的YouTube 修剪器和下载器(YouTube trimmer and downloader)。它有一个干净和直观的界面，并提供了许多下载选项。
过程很简单。首先(First)，粘贴您要修剪的YouTube 视频的(YouTube video)URL ，然后按(URL)Enter键或开始(Start)按钮（在页面上）。
然后视频将加载，您会注意到它左侧的 UI 控件。在播放视频时，您可以单击“开始(Start)”或“结束”(End)按钮来创建要从视频中裁剪的范围。此范围之前和之后的所有内容都将被删除。
您还可以使用<和>按钮将当前暂停时间增加和减少十分之一秒，从而可以精确选择视频的部分内容。
设置开始和结束时间后，您可以单击“预览(Preview)”按钮播放您的选择，看看它是否符合您的喜好。如果满意，您可以下载您选择的各种格式的剪辑。
单击“下载(Download)”按钮以显示四个选项：
- 视频文件：(Video file:)剪辑的MP4 文件(MP4 file)（带音频）
- GIF 动画：(GIF animations:)剪辑的动画 GIF 图像
- 音频文件：(Audio file:)剪辑的MP3 文件(MP3 file)（无视频）
- 屏幕截图：(Screenshot:)剪辑开头的高分辨率屏幕截图(high-resolution screenshot)
在极少数情况下，在选择格式后，您可能会收到一条错误消息，指出YouTube设置的速率限制(rate limit)已用完。如果您在重试之前等待几秒钟，您的下载应该会成功开始。如果没有，请给它一点时间，然后再试一次。
ytCropper 的功能与YT Cutter稍有不同，但在修剪YouTube 视频(YouTube videos)时拥有替代方案和选项非常好。
在 ytCropper 网站上，首先粘贴YouTube 视频(YouTube video)的链接，然后单击Crop!按钮。然后，您将被带到可以播放和预览视频的页面。
ytCropper 具有一个标记系统(marker system)，如果您尝试过常见的视频编辑应用程序(video editing applications)，您可能会熟悉该系统。不是要求用户单击按钮来确定停止点和起点(stop and start points)，而是拖动 UI 的这些元素。
在 ytCropper 上进行裁剪的一个直接缺点是该系统不支持几分之一秒，这意味着您的剪辑可能不太精确。从好的方面来说，这些标记充当视觉指示器，让您可以查看您裁剪的剪辑在播放栏上的确切位置。(play bar)它使扩展或缩短选择变得非常容易。
当您对您的选择感到满意时，单击下一个Crop!按钮。在这里，可以播放您的视频剪辑。(video clip)
ytCropper 不提供直接下载裁剪剪辑的功能，它真正所做的只是将YouTube 视频(YouTube video)嵌入到一个页面上，它会在您选择的时间开始和停止。它支持的一个有趣的功能是循环播放——当你从歌曲中剪出你最喜欢的部分时，这特别有用。
该视频可通过页面上提供的直接链接共享。
虽然我们很乐意提供更多替代方案，但不幸的是，许多YouTube 修剪(YouTube trimming)服务完全损坏或不足。例如，YouTube Trimmer仍未更新以修复其使用已弃用的YouTube URL参数的方式。
Kapwing Video Trimmer看起来和感觉都像是一项很棒的服务，直到您到达处理剪辑的部分并意识到您需要注册或处理水印。它也没有提供共享剪辑的最佳方法。
HeseTube曾经是剪切和下载YouTube 视频(YouTube videos)的首选解决方案，但现在它充斥着“无法处理视频”错误。你会经常看到这些。
幸运的是，我们在本文中列出的两个网站都填补了特定的空白：YT Cutter非常适合下载和保存剪裁的YouTube 视频(YouTube videos)，而 ytCropper 非常适合链接到剪裁后的YouTube 视频(YouTube videos)版本。我们希望他们能有所帮助！
此外，请务必查看我们的YouTube 提示(YouTube Tips)、技巧(Hacks)和捷径(Shortcuts)终极列表。使用它，您可以找到一些改善YouTube观看体验的好方法。
2 Best Sites To Trim & Crop YouTube Videos
Have you ever wanted to send a frіend or colleague a shоrt аnd importаnt snippet of a YouTube video without linking them to thе entire thing? Althоugh linking to the sрecific timestamp of a ΥouTube video is рossible, it isn’t suрported on every device аnd can be rather glitchy.
Along with making video clips shareable with friends, cropping and trimming YouTube videos is a tactic that many viral marketers and influencers use. You’ve probably seen instances of a Twitter user tweeting part of a video and getting thousands of retweets, right? How do they make it look so easy?
To crop and trim a YouTube video, it doesn’t take expertise with a program like Vegas Pro. All you need is a video link and to know which video trimming web service is best.
In this article, let’s go over the two best websites that will allow you to instantly trim and crop a YouTube video without downloading any special applications.
YT Cutter is our pick for the best overall web-based YouTube trimmer and downloader. It has a clean and intuitive interface and provides numerous download options.
The process is simple. First, paste the URL of the YouTube video you’d like to trim and press the Enter key or Start button (on the page).
The video will then load, and you’ll notice UI controls to the left of it. As you play through the video, you can click the Start or End buttons to create a range that you’d like to crop out of the video. Everything before and after this range will be cut out.
You can also use the < and > buttons to increase and decrease your current paused time by tenths of a second, allowing you to precisely select parts of the video.
Once you have start and end times set, you can click the Preview button to play your selection and see if it’s to your liking. If satisfied, you can download your selected clip in various formats.
Click the Download button to reveal four options:
- Video file: An MP4 file of your clip (with audio)
- GIF animations: An animated GIF image of your clip
- Audio file: An MP3 file of your clip (no video)
- Screenshot: A high-resolution screenshot of the start of your clip
In rare instances after selecting a format, you may get an error stating that a rate limit set by YouTube has been exhausted. If you wait several seconds before trying again, your download should start successfully. If not, give it a bit of time and try again.
ytCropper functions a bit differently than YT Cutter, but it’s nice to have alternatives and options when it comes to trimming YouTube videos.
On the ytCropper website, start by pasting the link of a YouTube video and clicking the Crop! button. You’ll then be taken to a page where you’re able to play and preview the video.
ytCropper features a marker system that you may be familiar with if you’ve experimented with common video editing applications. Rather than asking users to click on a button to determine the stop and start points, you drag these elements of the UI.
One immediate downside of cropping on ytCropper is that this system does not support fractions of seconds, meaning your clip may be less precise. On the upside, these markers act as visual indicators for you to see where exactly along the play bar your cropped clip is located. It makes extending or shortening the selection very easy.
When you’re satisfied with your selection, click the next Crop! button. Here, your video clip can be played.
ytCropper does not offer to directly download cropped clips, and all it really does is embed the YouTube video on a page where it will start and stop at the times you’ve selected. One interesting feature it does support is looping—this is particularly useful for when you’re cropping your favorite part out of a song.
The video is shareable by the direct link provided on the page.
While we’d love to offer more alternatives, unfortunately, a lot of the YouTube trimming services out there are flat-out broken or insufficient. For example, YouTube Trimmer has still not been updated to fix the way it uses deprecated YouTube URL parameters.
Kapwing Video Trimmer looks and feels like a great service, until you get to the part where you process your clips and realize you’ll need to sign up or deal with watermarks. It also doesn’t provide the best method of sharing your clips.
HeseTube was once a go-to solution for cutting and downloading YouTube videos, but now it’s riddled with “can’t process the video” errors. You’ll see these more often than not.
Luckily, both sites we’ve listed in this article fill particular voids: YT Cutter is great for downloading and keeping cropped YouTube videos, and ytCropper is great for linking to cropped versions of YouTube videos. We hope they can be helpful!
