Trimming Audio

The <Audio /> and <Video /> tags support the trimBefore and trimAfter props.
<Html5Audio /> also supports these props.

MyComp.tsx
import {AbsoluteFill, staticFile, useVideoConfig} from 'remotion'; import {Video} from '@remotion/media'; export const MyComposition = () => { const {fps} = useVideoConfig(); return ( <AbsoluteFill> <Video src={staticFile('video.mp4')} trimBefore={2 * fps} trimAfter={4 * fps} /> </AbsoluteFill> ); };

This makes the media play the range from 00:02:00 to 00:04:00, meaning it will play for 2 seconds.

The audio will still play immediately at the beginning - to see how to shift the audio to appear later in the composition, see the next article.
