Splitting Clips

 

The split function is used frequently in the video editing process. You can use it to quickly split a video clip into two segments, and then keep or remove one of them.

 

1. Drag the timeline slider to the position where you want to split the video clip, and then click the Split button.

Note:

If the position of the timeline slider is at the beginning or end of the video clip, the Split function is not available because it can't be split into two segments.

 

2. The video clip is split into two segments.

3. You can split the video clip into as many segments as you like.

Extra Information: If none of the split segments are removed, they are still one continuous video, which may be helpful if you want to apply effects or transitions.
