Video Editor

This article is an overview of the video editor feature within YuJa. Video editing is available for all uploaded media. The video editor is non-destructive to preserve the original files by creating a new video in the media library from edits saved.

Important Note: YuJa’s video editor does not save progress. This feature is intended for small edits and changes to videos. When trying to make numerous edits to a video, reach out to the Institute for Faculty Excellence (95289) for advice on video editing software. Treat the “SAVE” button in the editor as a finalize button.
