Clipping a video on demand (VOD)
With Video Center, you can create video clips from your uploaded videos on demand (VODs). Whether you’re trimming a video for social media or highlighting specific segments, the platform allows you to set precise cut-in and cut-out points, giving you complete control to craft clips tailored to your needs.
Note
Only VODs that are encoded have a filmstrip. VODs that are not encoded show a generic blue bar.
You can also create clips of your life streams. For more information, see Clipping a live stream video.
