How to use FlutterFlow's built-in video editing features?

Step 1: Access FlutterFlow

Before we start describing how to use video editing features, you need to access the FlutterFlow platform first. Visit the website and log into your account. If you don't have a FlutterFlow's account, make one by clicking on the "Sign Up" button and following the instructions.

Step 2: Create a new project or open an existing one

After successfully logging into FlutterFlow, either open an existing project or create a new one. To create a new project, find and click the "New Project" button, which is usually located in the top right corner of the dashboard. If you have an existing project in mind, find it on your dashboard and click on it to open.

Step 3: Navigate to the Media Library

In the project interface, go to the left-hand sidebar and click on the icon that resembles a stack of pictures. This icon represents the 'Media Library,' a place where all your media files, including videos, are stored.

Step 4: Upload your Video

Inside the media library, select the 'Upload Media' option, which is usually located in the top right portion of your library. This will allow you to browse through your computer's storage and pick the video you would like to edit.

Step 5: Choose the 'Videos' Tab

After uploading, the video will immediately appear in the "All" tab. Click on the "Videos" tab to filter the media files and see only the videos you have in your media library. Your newly uploaded video should be among the ones listed.

Step 6: Select the Video to Edit

In this step, find and select the video you recently uploaded and intend to edit. Clicking on the video will prepare it for editing in FlutterFlow's built-in video editor.

Step 7: Open the Video Editing Features

Once your video is selected, click on the 'Edit' button. This button will pop up once you click on your chosen video. Clicking 'Edit' will open up the built-in video editing features that FlutterFlow provides.

Step 8: Perform your Desired Edits

Now, you have the editing features in front of you. FlutterFlow provides basic video editing functionalities, such as cutting/trimming, rotating, adjusting the speed of the video, and others. Make your desired changes to the video. FlutterFlow's video editing tools are intuitive to use, but if you need assistance, hover over any of the editing tool icons for a brief description of what each one does.

Step 9: Save and Exit

Once you're satisfied with your edits, click 'Apply' to save those changes. It's important to remember that editing your video inside FlutterFlow does not alter the original video stored on your computer. If you've made a mistake or want to make additional edits, simply repeat Steps 7 and 8.

Step 10: Use the edited Video in your project

Your edited video is now ready to be placed in your project. Set it in your app user interface by dragging and dropping, or by assigning it to a certain button or event.

Remember that FlutterFlow is a development platform, so it provides basic video editing functionalities, but it doesn't replace a professional video editing software. If you need more advanced video editing capabilities, consider using dedicated video editing tools.
