Cutting recordings

This guide will show you how to cut out parts from video recordings using the built-in capture editor.

Before you start:

1. Move the position marker to where you want to cut the video.

2. Click the scissors button. A cut marker will appear at the current position.

Repeat these two steps to cut at the beginning and and at the end of each fragment you want to delete.

Precise positioning

For more precise positioning, click on the cut marker on the seek bar and do any of the following:

Click the previous frame and next frame buttons to move the cut marker by exactly one frame,
Click the arrows next to the time to move the marker by a small interval.
With the cut marker selected, use the arrow keys to move it left or right by 100 milliseconds.
Manually enter the necessary time.

1. On the seek bar, click a fragment to select it. The selected fragment appears as a darker shade.

2. To delete the selected fragment, click the trash can button.

A dotted line will appear on the seek bar where a fragment has been deleted:

How to undo cutting

To cancel a cutting action, click Undo at the top of the window or press Ctrl+Z. To repeat a cancelled action, click Redo.

If you've cut the video, you need to save it to apply the changes.

1. Click Save As. The window with saving options will appear.

2. At the top of the window, choose where to save the file and enter a file name.

3. Choose a format for the video. If you don't know which format to choose, leave MP4 selected. It will save faster and at no quality loss.

4. Click Save to start processing the video. This may take a while for longer videos.
