FAQ
Upload your video to VEED and use the Split tool in the editor to split videos into parts. Or use our Magic Cut tool to let AI cut and select the best clips from your YouTube video.
Cutting a video reduces watching time, whereas cropping a video “resizes” it to fit a different aspect ratio. Cut your video to make it brief, and crop it to make it the correct size.
YouTube supports videos in the following formats - MP4, 3GPP, AVI, FLV, MOV, MPEG4, MPEGPS, WebM, and WMV. VEED automatically downloads videos in the MP4 format to ensure compatibility with YouTube.
The recommended aspect ratio for YouTube is 16:9. Adjust your aspect ratio to prevent black pillars from appearing beside your video. Or, use VEED’s Preset Canvas Sizes to automatically download your videos with the proper aspect ratio.
