How Container Demuxing Strips Audio Losslessly
Media container formats (like MP4 or WebM) store separate multiplexed video tracks (H.264 / HEVC / VP9) and audio tracks (AAC / MP3 / Opus). Our WebAssembly demuxing engine strips audio tracks at the container level:
Worked Example: Muting 4K Drone Footage
