Trim video assets
Sitecore Content Hub lets you trim video assets. You can save or download trimmed sections as a new rendition of the video. Trimming creates new video assets without going through the whole creation process.
To trim a video:
-
On the menu bar, click Assets.
-
On the Assets page, click the video asset you want to trim.
-
On the asset details page, click Download.
-
Select Custom download.
-
On the custom download page, click Trim.
-
Drag the yellow tabs to select the required start and end of the trimmed video.
-
Click Done. The trimmed section shows next to the yellow tabs on the play bar at the bottom of the video preview.
-
Set the custom download parameters.
