Create a video from multiple videos and images in Content Hubs


About

Would you like to combine multiple videos and images into a single video? You can do this by 'stitching' together existing media using Kaltura’s media stitching tool.

  • Only VOD videos and images can be stitched.
  • The duration of an image is configured by your administrator.
  • Multi-stream videos are not supported.
  • This feature requires the mediastitching module to be enabled.

Stitch media

You can stitch media that you are the owner or co-editor of.

  1. From the +Create menu, select Stitch videos.
  2. The 'Stitch video' page opens. 

  3. In the Title field, enter a name for your video. (The default name is My new video followed by the date).
  4. In the Choose media to stitch section, click the + Add button next to each item.
  5. The selected items show a checkmark and appear in the Media to stitch together section.

  6. Click the + Add button again to remove an item.
    • You must select at least 2 items and up to 5 items.
    • The total duration of the stitched video can’t exceed 5 hours.

    To reorder items, drag them using the handle (two lines) on the left.

    You can click the three dots to to the right of an item to:

  • Move an item to the top
  • Move an item to the bottom
  • Remove the item


  • To finish, click Create at the top right.
  • You’re redirected to the edit page, where you can add metadata.

    Good to know

    • After the video is created, you can’t change the selected media items.
    • Captions are included when stitching videos.
    • If you delete a media entry after it has been added to a stitched video, it will still remain in the stitched video. 

    To make additional changes, see the article on Kaltura video editing tools.

    Fade transitions will be added in future releases.
