HOW TO TRIM A YOUTUBE VIDEO AFTER UPLOAD – YOUTUBE EDITOR

Ironically while writing this description I noticed that there are a couple of seconds of black screen at the end of this video 😱.

BUT hahaha no problem, I don’t need to cancel the upload, go back into the edit software, correct and re-export, and re import into youtube studio. Nope, easy peasy, all I need to do is finish optimising the video and then trim the end of the video.

Using this youtube editor feature is a life saver because its always those small errors that are the most frustrating when you have to weight up the overall benefit of ‘should you delete and reload’ or leave the error. But with the YouTube Editor tools you have some lifesaving options up your sleeve that can really help you out and rescue the situation.

I hope you find this video helpful.

Since you never know when you might need this why don’t you save future you time and ‘SAVE’ this video, save is just next to thumbs up, which of course would be great if you found this video helpful to also give a click to.
