Useful features
The following features are available on the video asset, on the Preview widget in the Overview tab, in the Editor, and on the Annotations widget in the Communication tab.
Adjusting playback speed
You can select a playback speed that is convenient for you.
For this, use the speed rate button on the bottom right of the Preview/Editor/Annotations widget.
The feature can be used for creating markers. In this case, the video snippet in the marker will be automatically played with the speed rate specified during its creation.
Timecode format
The format for the start and end time is hh:mm:ss:ff: the last two positions of the timecode show the video frame.
If you see a semicolon (;) instead of a colon (:) before the video frame, then the frame is a floating number, e.g. 0.002 and not the full number. It is also known as a drop frame and is widely used in TV broadcasting. The purpose is to sync with real time. Consequently, some frame numbers (but not frames) are “dropped”.
How to use Video Editor to trim a video
The trimmed video will replace the original master file!

Optionally, change the playback speed if this is more convenient for you.
-
Move the slider or enter the start and end time manually.

Click TRIM.

The processing may take some time. When it is finished, a notification will appear in the upper right corner.
