Trim a video

You can trim any video on demand (VOD) with your JWP dashboard. If you use the Live Channels product, you can trim excess content from the start and end of the Live Event video once the event has ended.

📘

• Only videos that have MP4 format originals with the H.264 codec and .mp4 file extension can be trimmed.
• Media ID does not change when trimming a video.
• Although an original file can be retrimmed in the future, JWP does not store an original file in its exact form. Therefore, you should retain your original files locally.

🔑

If you are a developer or have developer resources, you can use the Management API to set up an MRSS import feed.
