Local Video Redaction Studio Support

Review before export

Import a video, run a scan or draw regions by hand, then check the whole timeline. Detection helps but can miss content, especially small or hidden faces, fast changes, unclear text, and unfamiliar plates. Mark each region reviewed, play the redacted preview from start to end, and review the exported file again before sharing.

Audio

Mute or beep selected time ranges, or remove the audio track. The preview mutes audio regions; beeps are added only in the exported file. Silence extends 50 milliseconds before and after each region to protect the edges.

Speed and disk space

Scanning for text on every frame is heavy on the processor. For long videos, choose a sampling interval. The app keeps a local editing copy of each video, so keep free disk space for the copy and for the export. You can pick another drive for projects in Settings.

Supported videos

MP4, MOV, MKV, WebM, AVI and M4V on Windows 10 or later (x64). Exports are H.264 MP4 files at source size or up to 1080p or 720p.
