Replay 360: Editing Media

You can edit videos, audio clips, and images until your Replay 360 training video is just right. Here’s how.

Trimming a Media Clip

You can drag the left or right edge of a video or audio clip on the timeline to change its duration. This actually trims or truncates the clip, which is useful if you need to remove the beginning or ending of the clip.

Splitting a Media Clip

You can split a video clip, an audio clip, or an image into two or more segments so you have more control over the timing of elements in your project.

  1. To split a media clip into two segments, click the timeline at the point where you want it to split. The playhead will move to that point on the timeline.

    To split a media clip into three segments, drag the purple time range markers to the points where you want it to split.
  2. Click the media clip to select it.
  3. Click Split on the ribbon.

Cutting Out Part of a Media Clip and Splicing the Remaining Segments Back Together

When you cut a media clip, the selected portion gets removed and the remaining portions get spliced back together.

  1. Drag one of the purple time range markers to the beginning of the portion you want to cut.
  2. Drag the other time range marker to the end of the portion you want to cut.
  3. Select the media clip.
  4. Click Cut on the ribbon.

Tip: Double-click the playhead to reset the purple time range markers to their original positions beside the playhead.

Deleting Part of a Media Clip and Keeping the Remaining Segments Separate

The delete feature works like the split and cut features combined. In other words, you can cut out part of a media clip, but the remaining segments won’t be spliced back together. They’ll remain split.

  1. Drag one of the purple time range markers to the beginning of the segment you want to delete.
  2. Drag the other time range marker to the end of the segment you want to delete.
  3. Click the media clip.
  4. Click Delete on the ribbon.

Tip: Double-click the playhead to reset the purple time range markers to their original positions beside the playhead.

Silencing Part of a Media Clip

You can use the enhanced playhead to replace part of a media clip with silence.

  1. Drag one of the purple time range markers to the beginning of the portion you want to silence.
  2. Drag the other time range marker to the end of the portion you want to silence.
  3. Select the media clip.
  4. Click Silence on the ribbon.

Tip: Double-click the playhead to reset the purple time range markers to their original positions beside the playhead.

Adjusting the Volume of a Media Clip

Select a video or an audio clip, then choose one of the volume options in the panel on the right side of the screen:

Mute

This mutes the selected media clip.

Automatic

This maintains the clip's original volume.

Manual

This lets you adjust the volume with a slider.
