  • Select one of the following copy options. 

    • Create Reference Copy [1]: This creates a reference copy of the video. Video reference copies refer back to an original source video but with a completely clean slate of viewer-contributed metadata, such as quiz results, comments, and notes. When its source video is edited, the reference copy will automatically also reflect the same edits. 

Note: Prior to making edits on an original source video, the user will receive a warning window indicating that the video is referenced by other video(s).
