Import footage

Prepare readable files and diagnose an interrupted upload.

Practical guideEnglish

Before you begin

  • Keep the originals and check that every file plays locally with sound.
  • Gather duration, size, resolution and codec information. Applicable limits are those displayed in your product workspace.

Step by step

  1. 01

    Organise the sources

    Use clear names such as workshop-wide-shot-01. Separate footage, music, voice and logos; remove duplicates and unused takes.

  2. 02

    Check compatibility

    An extension is not enough: two MP4 files can use different codecs. If a file is rejected, preserve the original and prepare a copy in a format accepted by the product.

  3. 03

    Check transfer completion

    Keep a stable connection during transfer. Before editing, check each source’s name, duration, picture and sound in the project.

Practical example

Practical example

Project folder: 01-footage / 02-voice / 03-music / 04-brand. A working copy does not replace a backup.

Review checklist

  • The source count matches your selection.
  • Duration is correct and sound is present.
  • The original copy remains available outside the project.

Troubleshooting

Upload appears stuck

Check your connection and service status. Record the exact message and time. Then test a small, non-sensitive file to distinguish network issues from source issues.

Picture is black or sound is missing

Play the file locally. If the same problem appears, return to the original recording; otherwise record the audio and video codecs for diagnosis.
