Overview

When editing videos, it is essential to keep the video content updated and free of errors.  Panopto allows you to edit uploaded videos without losing the original copy.  Videos can also be merged together, which may be needed when recordings are made using two different computers to capture audio, video, PowerPoint, and screen capture– but the recordings are not recorded in the same session.

  1. In order to start editing your video, open it and press the edit button (Fig. 1).

Trimming the Video

See images to the right.

  1. In order to perform this feature, use the Timeline that is located in the lower half of the Panopto screen, as shown on the right of this page (Fig.2). If you have multiple media sources, you will see them lined up in this timeline and indications for Primary Sources (P1) and Secondary Sources (S1) and Slides (SL).

Click and drag the grey lines over the sections that you wish to edit out (Fig 3). If needed, you can do this multiple times to get rid of all of the undesired clips.

  2. Play your video from the beginning and pause it right before you'd like it to start. Select the cut tool and click and drag the gray line to trim out the section of the video (Fig 4). Note: The gray line will snap into position with the red one, this will allow you to be more precise with your cuts.

Tip

Cut sections will always appear in the timeline but will not playback in the Panopto viewer once you publish your changes. That is because Panopto's editor is non-destructive, and we always want to make sure you are able to re-add those sections back into your video at any time if necessary.

 Adding a web link when editing a TOC entry will embed a website into your video. If you want to add a link without embedding a website, you can add it as the title of the TOC entry. The link will be clickable when your changes are published.
