A Detailed Tutorial on How to Record Video with No Sound

Generally speaking, most people know how to record a video. But as people's needs are constantly changing, so are their requirements for recording. For example, how to record a video without audio?

It might occur to you to disable the sound at the start of the recording. This is indeed a solution, but it is a clumsy and obviously flawed one. When you are recording a video on your computer, you may remember to disable the computer speaker.

Part 2. How to Record a Video without Sound Online

This section is for those who just want to record videos online without sound. After many trials, we have found a great free online screen recorder, Screen Capture, to be a free and trustworthy online video recording tool. This online tool allows you to record videos without audio, including the option to disable system sound and microphone separately.

The downside is that it records videos with a watermark that cannot be removed, the video quality is not as good as that of TunesKit Screen Recorder, and it only exports in MP4 format. But the good thing is that it doesn't limit the length of recording. So if you're not serious about video quality, you can use it to record a video without sound. You can refer to the following steps.

How to Capture a Video without Sound

When the video ends, tap the Stop Recording button. And the silent video recording is displayed on the Screen Capture page. You can check the video recording and save it to your computer by tapping the Download button.

Part 3. How to Record Video without Sound on iPhone/Android Phone

As mentioned above, the recording function on both Android phones and iPhones can be done without recording the sound of the microphone. And it can capture the video without audio as long as you turn down the volume of the video.

However, if you also tap the screen during the recording and accidentally turn up the volume, the sound will be recorded in full. To record video without sound on an Android or iPhone, you need a third-party app. After testing, we found a video recording app that is compatible with both Android and iOS, called DU Screen Recorder.

DU Screen Recorder can smoothly record anything you want on your phone, including games, lessons, videos, and more. What makes it possible to record videos without sound is that it also supports individual settings to disable sound or not.

So all you need to do is turn off the sound option in the settings before you start recording, and it will successfully capture the video without sound. The method of use is not entirely the same, as systems are different. We will list a separate guide on how to use the app to record silent video on Android phones and iPhones.

Step 3: Now, you can start the video recording. Tap the small icon, select the Record button, and turn to play the video. When you've done, tap the small icon again to stop the recording. Then the recorded video will be saved in Photos.

3.2 How to Record Video without Sound on iPhone

Step 2: You can do the same for your iPhone by following the above instructions for disabling sound on the Android phone.
