Multiple videos can be merged into one video file. For example, 3 students working on a group presentation can merge individually recorded videos into one video presentation.
 (Note: When merging, the older video created first will appear first in the video after the merge. Only original versions of videos can be merged – ie: a copy cannot be merged. Allow ample time for merging to process.)

This document includes the following:

• The process of merging videos
• Steps students need to take to share videos/folders to allow other students to edit and merge

Sharing Videos & Folders for Group Editing and Merging

 

STEP 1

Create a new folder that can be shared with other users

(note: ‘My Folder’ cannot be shared. A new sub-folder under ‘My Folder’ needs to be 
created for sharing. If you already have a created folder you intend to use, ignore this step)

 

Click “Create” and select “New Folder”

---

 

STEP 2

Name the folder and ensure the parent folder displays “My Folder”

 

→ Next to “Options” - Deselect: “Inherit permissions from the parent folder”

 

→ Click “Create Folder”

---

 

STEP 3 

Hover over your video and select “Settings”

 

Under the Overview tab next to “Folder,” click “Edit”

From the drop-down options, select your created sub-folder underneath “My Folder” and then click “Save”

(Note: You have now moved the video to the folder that can be shared with other users for editing)

---

 

STEP 4

Click “Browse” on the left side of the screen

Select the folder you created where the video resides that you intend to have merged

You should then see the folder name display on the top left of the page

---

 

STEP 5

Navigate to the top right of the page and click the settings wheel

Select “Share” from the menu options on the left

---

 

STEP 6

Under “People and Groups,” type in the OW email address of the user you want to share with and hit enter on the keyboard

 

Change the role in the dropdown from viewer to “Creator”

 

Then click “Send” when you are finished adding users to finalize sharing

(note: the users you share ‘creator’ access with to your folder will be able to merge/edit videos in that folder)
