Understanding the Video Editing Interface
When the Edit Video icon is clicked, the Video Editing interface is revealed. The Video Player shrinks and displays the video on the upper half of the screen and video editing buttons and timeline appear beneath the video. Each function is described below.
 
Function
Description
Video Edit buttons:
Undo
Undo the last action taken.
Redo
Redo the last undone action.
Cut
Cuts a video thumbnail segment selected on the timeline.
Reset
Resets the video back to its original state at any point in the editing process (if it has not been saved).
Download
Downloads the original video to your hard drive. You are advised to do this before editing so you have a saved copy.
Add Items
Allows you to add the following items to the video:
●Presentation: Adds PowerPoint presentation chapters to the video. Note this is different from attaching a standalone supplemental presentation file to a video. In this instance you are syncing the presentation slides to the video timeline that then act as named chapters. These chapters can subsequently be edited and manipulated on the timeline.
●Chapter: Add chapters to a video (with no slides) at specified points on the timeline so that other users may jump to those points in time you have defined.
Timeline/Thumbnails:
Displays the full timeline of the video in conjunction with the video thumbnails. Defaults to minutes and seconds format (mm:ss). If the video is an hour in length or longer, the timeline will display in (hh:mm:ss) format. The thumbnails may be selected and cut from the video.
Scale:
Adjusts the timeline scale to allow zooming of video thumbnails for more granular time editing as needed.
Save / Cancel:
Saves the edited version of the video or cancels all edits (if not saved first) without saving changes.
 
Caution: The video editor is not supported on Internet Explorer 9 and smartphone devices. Note that Vbrick has tested the editor on old video conference recordings, however, there might be the occasional recording that the editor cannot read or edit. If this occurs while editing a VC recording, the editor will display “Processing failed” and a Restore Original Video button. Restore the original video by clicking this button and do not attempt to edit the video again.
