Why use Aback Video for this

  • Three layouts

    Side by side for reactions, stacked for vertical comparisons, and a 2 x 2 grid for four angles.

  • Automatic matching

    Clips are scaled to the same height or width so the edges line up without gaps.

  • Sound your way

    Use the first clip's sound, mix every clip together, or keep it silent.

  • On your device

    Your clips are combined in the browser and never uploaded.

Frequently asked questions

What happens if the clips are different lengths?

With Shortest clip, the video ends when the shortest clip ends. With Longest clip, it runs until the longest ends and the shorter clips hold their last frame.

Can I put a vertical and a landscape clip side by side?

Yes. In Side by side layout both are scaled to the same height, so the vertical clip simply takes up less width.

How large is the output?

Side by side doubles the width, Stacked doubles the height. To keep it reasonable, very large combinations are scaled down so neither side exceeds about 4K.

Is anything uploaded?

No. The clips are combined locally with FFmpeg in WebAssembly.

Why does it take a while?

Several videos are decoded and one larger video is encoded on a single thread in the browser. Short clips finish quickly; long ones take a few minutes.

Does it work on phones?

Yes for short clips. Combining several long high-resolution videos needs a lot of memory, which phones may not have.
