If you edit while the video is still processing, your actions may occur only on the transient/temporary version of the video, and not on your final video. - Click Start New Video to begin creating a new video in Wochit.
- Click Close to close the window and be redirected to the entry (video) Edit page in MediaSpace. The player displays a "Work in Progress" thumbnail that indicates this this video is still in progress.
Manage and Re-Edit a Wochit Video
Both draft and produced Wochit videos are available on My Media and labeled with "Wochit Video".
A Wochit video is afforded the same functionality as any other video in MediaSpace. You can share it, add it to a playlist, etc. You can edit the video (make minor touch-ups, create a quiz, add hot spots, etc.) by visiting the Edit Media Page and using Kaltura's Video Editing Tool.
For additional editing, such as changing some of the raw footage and updating text, you must re-enter the Wochit Studio Workspace. To do so, you must first duplicate the video.
