Frequently asked questions
Will the WAV be larger than the source?
Yes — PCM is uncompressed, so a 5-minute audio track can easily exceed 50 MB.
Why does m3u8 fail to load?
Most likely CORS. Use the upload tab if a server blocks cross-origin fetch.
Can I edit the WAV in Audacity / Reaper afterwards?
Yes — WAV is a standard PCM format and works in any DAW.
Are multi-audio tracks supported?
We extract the primary audio track. Multi-language extraction is on the roadmap.
Which browsers are supported?
Chrome 105+, Edge 105+, Safari 16.4+, Firefox 130+. WebCodecs is required.
