All Vimeo members can trim their videos by removing unwanted sections of the video’s beginning and end.
⚠️Note: This article is referring to the trimmer tool found on the video settings page for all Vimeo videos. To learn more about the trimming feature in the Vimeo Create editor, see here.
The video trimmer tool is available on the Video Page (desktop only) below the player, next to the Download button.
The video length can be set by holding and dragging the trimmer handles. You can move the needle in the trimmer bar to preview the video scenes and ease the trimming start/endpoint selection.
You can also enter the values manually or use the keyboard when the handle is selected:
|
Arrow click |
0.2 second (00:00:20) step |
|
Arrow + shift-click |
2 second (0:02) step |
- Videos can be trimmed in units of 20 milliseconds (0:00:20) and above.
- Currently, videos can be trimmed at the beginning and end. It’s not possible to extract selected sections from the middle of the video.
- The tool is not enabled for 360-degree videos or videos that were uploaded to Vimeo prior to October, 2013.
⚠️Note: Basic and Plus members' videos that were trimmed using this tool cannot be untrimmed once saved. The new trimmed version will replace the original one, and it cannot be restored.
