Clip Details Area
The Clip Details Area enables you to set the destination parameters by applying a preselected template that can be edited, allowing you to select which platform(s) the video clip will be published (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, YouTube). You can also set parameters and save the clip or publish the clip without using a template.
Depending on your workflow, the Clip Details area can used to select a template, and modify it if you want, before publishing, or to simply publish the media to the chosen destinations.
You can also select, edit, and download Thumbnail images from here by clicking on the thumbnail icons on the right side of the video.
An example of the Clip Details area is shown below:
