Frequently asked questions
Can I mute multiple regions in a single export?+
Yes — you can add multiple mute regions before exporting. JAD composes all mute ranges into a single aselect filter pass, processing them simultaneously without multiple encode passes. Define all the regions you need to mute before hitting export.
Can I replace the muted region with a beep tone instead of silence?+
JAD currently applies silence to muted regions. For a broadcast-style beep censor tone, you can export with silence and mix in a generated 1 kHz beep tone at the muted timecode in any DAW or audio editor. This two-step approach gives the most control over the beep tone character and level.
Does muting the audio affect video quality?+
No — JAD uses stream-copy for the video track throughout the mute operation. Only the audio track is processed (the muted region is zeroed out, the rest passes through). The video is copied byte-for-byte with no re-encoding, preserving full original video quality.
