Video Editor

The Vidrush Editor is where you refine your AI-generated video. It allows you to search for new media, tweak audio levels, and manage your timeline with precision.

ℹ️ Project Info Panel

Located at the top of the screen, next to your project title, click the “i” (Info) button to view critical details:

  • Project Metadata: Title, creation date, and total video duration.
  • Voice Settings: The specific ElevenLabs Voice ID used (useful if you need to replicate the voice later).
  • Visual Settings: The active Theme and Background Image.

🛠️ Canvas & Timeline Settings

Located on the right side of the editor, these settings control the global behavior of your project.

SettingDescription
Canvas BackgroundSets the color or image behind your video layers.
Overlay Drop ShadowToggles visual shadows under overlay elements for depth.
Show Transitions(New) A master switch to hide or show all transitions in the video instantly.
Enable CaptionsA master toggle to turn auto-generated subtitles on or off.
Sound Controls(New) Global volume sliders for three audio tracks:<br>• Template SFX: Sound effects attached to transitions/animations.<br>• Video Audio: The sound from B-roll video clips.<br>• Audio Overlay: The background music track.
ZoomUse the slider or “Zoom Here” / “Center” buttons to navigate the timeline precisely.
RowsAdd (+) or remove (-) layers to your timeline.
Reset Timeline(Magic Button) Reverts the project to its initial AI-generated state. Useful for fixing layout errors.

The Bottom Toolbar (Export Tools)

At the very bottom right of the screen, you will find three critical icons:

  1. 📄 Export Transcript: Instantly downloads the text transcript of your video.
  2. 📥 Download Video: Downloads your latest rendered video file.
  3. ⚙️ Settings: Opens the panel described above.

📂 The Media Sidebar (Left Menu)

This is where you find assets to build or customize your video.

🎬 Video & 🖼️ Image Tabs

  • Search: Type keywords (e.g., “happy,” “office,” “space”) into the search bar.
  • Add to Timeline: Click on any clip or image to instantly place it onto your active timeline track or replace a selected element.

🔄 Smart Transitions System
Vidrush now uses an intelligent transition engine.

  • Automatic Balancing: The system automatically places transitions (Glitch, Film-Burn, Slide Pan, Zoom) strategically. Expect a 70/30 ratio—heavier transitions are used in the hook and outro to keep retention high, while the core video uses more direct cuts for better pacing.
  • Smart SFX: Transitions come with sound effects, but the system intelligently mutes them in specific spots to avoid audio fatigue (spamming swoosh sounds).
  • Manual Control: You can click any transition marker on the timeline to change its type or delete it entirely.

✨ Animations

  • Library: Contains professional motion graphic templates.
  • CTA: Look here for the Subscribe Template. You can add it with a single click to boost your channel growth.

📁 Local

  • Upload: Use this tab to upload your own files (Voiceovers, Logos, B-roll) directly from your computer.

🎵 Audio

  • Music Library: Browse and select background tracks.
  • Volume: Remember to use the Sound Controls on the right to balance the music volume against the voiceover.

🎞️ Timeline Overview timeline-overview.png

The timeline is composed of six fixed layers, arranged from top to bottom:

  1. Captions (Light Blue): Auto-generated subtitles.
  2. Visual Layers (Blue/Green): B-roll videos (Blue) and images (Green).
  3. Voiceover (Dark Orange): The AI narration blocks.
  4. Background Music (Yellow-Orange): The soundtrack.
  5. Animation / Templates (Purple): Motion graphics and transitions.
💡

Pro Tip: Always Zoom In on the timeline when editing. It makes selecting small clips and trimming edges significantly easier.

💾 Finalizing & Exporting

Once you are happy with your edit:

  1. Click Render Video to process your changes (transitions, color corrections, etc.).
  2. Troubleshooting: If you hear audio glitches in the preview, Render First. 90% of preview audio issues disappear in the final render.
  3. Use the Download Icon in the bottom toolbar to save the file.
