Frequently Asked Questions
Why do my imported videos have no sound in Clipchamp?
This typically happens if the video's audio codec is unsupported by the app, the file is corrupted, or if an error occurred during the import process. Converting the video to a standard MP4 format with AAC audio before importing usually resolves the issue.
Does clearing browser cache fix Clipchamp playback issues?
Yes, if you are using the web browser version of Clipchamp rather than the Windows desktop app. Clearing your browser's cache and cookies can resolve many streaming, loading, and playback glitches.
What video formats are best supported by Clipchamp?
Clipchamp works best with MP4, MOV, and WEBM video files. If your source video is in a different format, it may fail to play properly, drop frames, or lose its audio tracks.
