# Highlights Editor

Pick the best moments from your videos, put them in the order you want, watch the result right away, and publish it as a new video. 
**No downloading, no editing software, no waiting.**

# How to use it

1. **Go to content - highlights editor**
2. **Pick a video:** Choose from the platform's videos, existing clips, or video files you have uploaded.
3. **Mark the moment:** Set where it starts and ends, the same way you already make clips. Or add the whole video in one click.
4. **Build the reel:** Add as many moments as you like, from as many videos as you like. Drag them into order. Click one to adjust it.
5. **Watch, then publish:** Press Preview to watch the finished reel. Your reel is saved as a draft so you can go back and edit it as many times you want.  Happy with it? Create it as a new video, or use it to replace an existing one. 


###### The editor only remembers your choices. The videos themselves are never copied or converted until you publish.

|| Why that matters: previewing is free and instant, no matter how many times you change your mind. We only spend processing time on the version you actually publish.


# What it does

* **Combines moments from different videos into one**
A goal from the match, a quote from the interview, the celebration from another camera. All in one reel.
* **Shows you the result immediately**
Every change can be watched within seconds. You can try as many versions as you want, for free, before you publish anything.
* **Publishes like any other video**
The reel becomes a normal video on the platform, with its own page, thumbnail and statistics. You can also swap it in for an existing video, so links and history stay the same.
* **Saves your work**
A reel is a project you can come back to. Leave it as a draft, edit it later, publish when it is ready.
* **Uses what is already on the platform**
Nothing needs to be downloaded or uploaded again. The original videos stay untouched.

# What it doesn't do

It is a tool for cutting and combining, not a full video editor. That is what keeps it fast and free to use.
* **No text, logos, music or transitions**
Moments are placed one after the other with a straight cut between them. Nothing is drawn on top of the video.
* **Cuts are not frame exact at the start**
A moment begins at the nearest clean cut point after where you marked it, which can be a few seconds later. The end is exactly where you put it. Give the start a little room.
* **It can't cut a stream that is live**
It works on finished videos. For moments during a live broadcast, use Clips in the broadcast view as today.
* **Uploaded files must be standard MP4 videos**
Everything recorded or uploaded through StayLive works. Some phone recordings use a newer format and need to be exported as a standard MP4 first; the editor tells you when that is the case.
* **No download button yet**
The result is a video on the platform. Downloading the reel as a file is planned.


# Highlights or clips?

Both cut moments out of videos. Here is when to reach for which.
