LiveLink's Video Trimmer For YouTube

What is a Video Trimmer for YouTube?

An AI-powered video trimmer app lets you take out unnecessary parts at the beginning and end of a YouTube video. You can do this to delete bloopers, long silences, mistakes, and off-screen moments.

Trimming videos help you keep your content short and precise. It boosts engagement so your viewers won't swipe up or get bored with your content.

There are dozens of apps you can use to trim your YouTube videos online. Even YouTube Studio has an editor that lets you cut and trim already-uploaded videos.

However, most of them are cluttered with ads and take too long to export the final clip. You can instead use LiveLink, which has an online video editor for trimming YouTube videos and shorts.

It has a beginner-friendly interface that lets you trim videos perfectly by referencing the transcript or timeline. Start trimming YouTube videos with LiveLink now.

Benefits of Using LiveLink's Video Trimmer For YouTube

YouTube Studio comes with its very own online video cutter. It lets you cut and trim videos on your channel and upload or republish them.

It's fast and beginner-friendly. However, it's not a dedicated video editor and you can't work on creating a new video from scratch. You also can't do certain things like splicing clips, reframing, and adding custom captions or audio.

This is where LiveLink comes into play. It has several advantages over YouTube Studio and lets you do things like:

  • Trim the start and end according to the exact words in the transcript
  • Trim videos via the visual timeline
  • Reframe different sections of the clip
  • Customise the captions and adjust the transcript along with it
  • Generate dozens of YouTube shorts from a single long-form video

1. Upload Your Video or Link to a YouTube URL

First, you’ll have to show LiveLink which video to trim. You can do this by pasting the YouTube video URL to LiveLink’s search bar or uploading a video file. After that, you can pick an aspect ratio and LiveLink will get to work.

2. Review Clips and Open Them on the Video Editor

LiveLink will redirect you to a page with a list of AI-generated clips. Here, you can browse through each one and see if the AI clips them correctly. If not, you can trim manually by clicking on the “edit” button.

You trim videos on LiveLink’s video editor via the transcript or timeline. After you trim manually, you can click on “Save Changes” and return to the project screen. Finally, you can click on the “Download” button to save these clips to your device.
