[@gramarsheriff6338]

I don't care that this is kapwing's official video tutorial. I will never call it kapwing, I will only call it cap wing

[@Foraing]

Sameee😭😭😭

[@LuxLifeTech]

Probably the best tutorial on KZbin … you’re an excellent teacher, a total natural. Thank you!

[@forboomers]

Great video! It was so refreshing to watch a tutorial that just got to the point, but still covered everything. Kudos to you. but it's also not lost on me that a big part of why this video literally stands out so much for it's quality should probably be considered a testimony to the power of Kapwing. Looking forward to digging in.

[@RBLX_BATCON]

thank you kapwing, i needed a free video editor, idc about the watermark

[@AngelTheend...]

I use Kapwing, this helped me a lot!

[@codenamemom3357]

Thank you for this tutorial! I’ve been holding off on starting anything as I didn’t fully understand but I do now and I’m very thankful I can come back and watch it over and over 😂 would love some more “Back to Basics” for us 30+ who rejected all the tech years ago now is useless at the most basic things with editing 😂

Thank you for the amazing tutorial

[@Zilong-rz9re]

Tnx for sharing...

[@snicky58]

Thank you so much, very helpful video!

[@LaurenNanson]

Thank you. This was super helpful.

[@JakeFreshProductions]

Supper helpful, thank you!

[@edpugh6962]

Wow very impressive, very thoughtful UI. I'm trying to do what this tool does but it takes multiple apps and is not user friendly. Well done!

[@strongerlongerlife]

So good / helpful!

[@hamzaabdullah3971]

Thanks for the video 🎉

[@africaart]

Yeah, I just discovered a feature 11:46 Excited to try it out.

[@user-ql5rd5gk1z]

It was a very informative tutorial and easy to understand. Is there an option to add a voice over in Kapwing?

Cool cheers from portugal 🇵🇹

[@Jivehooks]

Could you tell me if I can export the subtitles If I want to continue to use them in Premiere?

[@Grief2Growth]

I want to upload audio only files and have B-roll added to it by AI. Is this possible with Kapwing? Basically, I want to do a monologue with my mic and create a video for KZbin.

[@ts33]

I’ve just done a 3:44 video project but it doesn’t seem to export when I press on the export button. What am I doing wrong?

[@Lorena21888]

same problem

[@morrisonbillmel]

Same problem...its blocked by a pay wall. It caused me to google and you tube search why, and now I'm hesitating to subscribe because there are so many reports online for exporting issues for people who PAY. Why advertise that you can export on the free version when you can't?

[@brainspineuppercervicalchiro]

I downloaded the iPhone app version and it’s extremely limited. It doesn’t save any content in the folders after you’ve made them so you can go back and re-edit them. I was looking for something to replace. I moved me on my iPhone. I’ve also been using iMovie from my laptop. Is there a Kapwing desktop version that links w the app im paying 3$ / weeks for?

[@candiusstearns10x]

Can you show how to blur an area of a screen record video so sensitive information can be blurred out in the screen record how to videos I create.

[@mounkeydanimes]

hey guys i need little help, when im recording my screen on youtube after i finish the audio doesnt come out, is because im doing that using my headset? do i need speakers to be able to reproduce the recorded youtube screen? Thanks heaps!

[@thomastan6015]

spend my entire afternoon for the video. during export, message "your video is still uploading". ok fine, i waited for 12 hours. and it still show the same message. please help

[@mattdelaney7221]

Did it ever work? I'm in the same boat.

[@theguy7276]

question : is there anything that i could use to convert a big MP4 (( 50 MB+ish )) into a URL / Link? im tryna do it for discord because they are stingy af with the file sizes they let you upload.

[@sharonbrooks400]

how do i save my project on kapwing?

[@jadacharleston7461]

How do you save an unfinished project on Kapwing please

[@lukasmarhoun5781]

I have problem with my transition. When i chose almost any animation instead of relapsing from video over video it relapse from one segment to light blue color and then to next part. How can i get this light blue out of it? I would appreciate any advice.

[@kingbluejuice9135]

hey kapwing can you add a motion blur?

[@Azadulhoque]

Asses has no audio problem....how can i solve

[@trex0745]

can you help me its says that i have to pay for an upgrade and i dont want to buy one. it says that when i click export project

[@hearthis243]

I made a video in the free version, but I can't seem to export it. When I press the export button, it takes me to the upgrade to premium page. Can you only upgrade with the premium version?

[@morrisonbillmel]

This is my problem/question too.

[@muradtravels]

I make KZbin videos, If I am still using Final Cut Pro does that mean I am using a legacy technology….. i might have to start using something like this? What makes this software standout from its competitors?

[@thecelebrity8989]

So how do you loop the video??

[@AnHeene]

Hello, I have a question. I do the tutorial and do everything what you say. But when I add an image an a emoji to my video, it stops playing, on that point. It seems like the image and emoji blocks the video. What is going on? How can I do this right? Thank you.

[@Vanhalen1]

How do you move the background image and video to the background of your original video?

[@Zoomer_Gaming]

how do i keep something in the same spot in the backround?

[@hon2945]

Is there a way to make the videos longer than 2 hours??

[@2WheelTours]

This is a very useful tool, but I'm still looking for sth where I can manipulate individual captions differently from the rest.Kapwing only allows me to change the position, but nothing else...

[@AIsrael_IAC]

how do I e-mail support? (very poor customer service if you don't put your e-mail in an easy place to find) Do you have a price plan for non-profit organizations?

[@eamonnd5501]

Why does the (karaoke) video I created in Kapwing not show the subtitles, (lyrics) I created in the actual Project video? Any thoughts most welcome!

[@Anonymous_for_me]

Please help me to understand layers tab

[@DixieTwisters]

Good to see premiere pro is still king even with AI seeping into the video editing world.

[@xanidydexidy]

lmao davinci better

[@extrememiketube280]

Do you know how to download to camera roll

[@user-oi7jt5jv6v]

with the free trial what sort of privacy do you have when making a video. Can anyone see it? It's nothing bad was just wondering

[@sharonbrooks400]

i uploaded my project, but when i opended it , looks like my kapwing dashboard, not simply the video. help

[@johnpaul.hello.]

This is like the Canva of social media video editing

[@easyhomecooking9690]

I made a wallpaper now from where to download 😭?

[@TimDuggan]

need support on exports cutting audio after 37mins. I have a pro account but there is NO SUPPORT contact details or chat function even. Many thanks

[@KakakAbdullah]

How to edit background music

[@secretstoasafestressfreetr1286]

I have been using Kapwing Pro for more than a year now. I like Kapwing's video editor however there are some instances that in the middle of a project, the videos turn dark green and do not play just blank screen. How do I remedy this? Is there a support team I can chat with to address this problem? It has been happening to me especially when I really need to finish my video editing on time. Please help. Thank you.

[@xxzwq]

why transition is not working :( ? i tried alot to add,, but it never shows up in splits, of video clips

[@TheTalksoup]

Lately more often than not I do not have an audio separation available and to prove my point I upload THIS video to Kapwing and it has no separate audio to detach

[@TheTalksoup]

The very reason I came to this tutorial was to find out wth is going on with the audio file & there are quite a few folks asking the same thing.

[@rikou478]

The site is good, but there are some videos we have that I want to post that the kapwing montage program does not read We want a solution as soon as possible

[@Kapwing]

Reach out to [e-mail] if you have any questions and we will be happy to help!

[@user-gq9ub7ko6z]

Hi, there is some issue in kapwing subtitles generation. when i m select Language Marathi bharat to generate subtitles its not generate in marathi. Its generate in hindi. So kindly help me ASAP. I m the pro user. How to Contact you.

[@nothing-rj2ze]

I'm trying to upload to KZbin and it keep sending me to buy pro I'm not sure but I think the pro is asking me that buy pro to send upload I thinks. I'm not sure. But how do I send videos to KZbin?

[@rowelldelosreyes5268]

no video background remover?

[@MushfiqsGamingShow]

There is a problem with my kapwing i tried to export project but that doesn't works. i tried to minimize it but it's still on upgrade

[@danisverse]

I have a question, can you add your own AI voice for the text to speech capability? I want to create a video but add a realistic sounding voice as opposed to the robotic AI voice preinstalled.

[@fibonacci1531]

I can not upload my video a message appears "Out of Memory " there is no customer support !!

[@DixieTwisters]

smart cut reminds me of delete silence in pro tools lol

[@elizabethm5794]

How do I move a project into a different folder? This shouldn't be complicated.

[@ARQ-lk6km]

Why does it turn orange it says it is free of it when. Exporting

[@arsenalmanxd]

how do you export for free

[@TRK-Eren]

i literally worked on a youtube video project for 4 hours, just to see that to export it I need to pay it cause it's more than 250 MB. Explain that in the video at least

[@morrisonbillmel]

You have to pay no matter the size. I have a 3 min video that is less than 50 MB and won't download without $$$. It really stinks because a group of middle school aged kids created and were hoping to use the video for a 4-H competition.

[@JayDrewGWP]

We need a mobile app!! Using the web browser is getting old and difficult. 🤦🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️

[@justinerickson1853]

Phone version is incapable of cropping only shrinking the video

[@AidenApplehead]

Kapwing is good and ass at the same time ngl

[@Dancerboi123]

When I add text to a long video it always turns low quality anyone facing with that?

[@master_profile6749]

Good Tutorial. Too bad everything is locked behind a paywall.

[@Ded23601]

Don't waste your time on it. The company got greedy.

[@tattooeddragon]

I went to the site and there is no “free” option only the paid ones.

[@Ded23601]

Don't waste your time on it. The company got greedy.

[@tylerkeller2492]

Why are my videos always poor quality when trying to use this

[@NormZero]

all good but export take too much time.

[@JoshuandJoel213]

Hmmm... I wonder what video i'm making...

[@sumeyaiyussuf6990]

You can't translate the clip

[@convergence5687]

karinge

[@Somtric]

Takes a billion years to get your video files uploaded if you got multiple clips.

[@fatmakamal1751]

كيف الغي الصوت 😢

[@thislife1]

There is a purple line through the audio waveform in the lower half of the video file. Move it down, to 0% = turn off the sound.

[@fatmakamal1751]

😍اشكرك علي الرد 🌹

[@user-nz7dl5kb5p]

@@fatmakamal1751 مرحبا. انت اشتريتي النسخة المتقدمة. خبريني لو سمحتي لانو انا مفكر اشتريها عشان ما اتورط

[@fatmakamal1751]

لم اشتريها انا اشتغلت علي النسخه التجريبيه فقط

[@Skhan-gq4bb]

why its not free

[@Mistique_Parasite_YT]

Y is he in incognito?

[@markusaureliuskrabus]

Use a new profile so it is easier for new viewers

[@Gerisk]

I like this tutorial, but everything is locked behind a paywall, and it isn't all that user friendly either and the fact how I am forced to upgrade means that you guys are trying to force me to buy an upgrade even though it's free...

[@fewtherebethatfindit]

I started a new project and created a video with my computer camera and mic. I decided to pause the recording to make sure it was working. It worked great. Then I tried to restart recording so I could finish my video but I could not restart recording. So I created a new project and recorded my entire video before I stopped recording. I tried many times creating new projects each time and my video never showed up. It was simply gone every time. What am I doing wrong?

[@jaybaypay6997]

Explain to me how you got permission to use any of my images. Explain to me why my images came up in an image search when using your platform when I tested it. Explain how you plan on getting permission to use my images that popped up on your platform when I did not give you access to them. Your platform is a bad copyright risk to people's KZbin channels. How this is allowed is beyond me.

[@ilyasazeb2151]

it is not free anymore

[@wedti]

After subscribing, there is no support, and there are not all the features that I mentioned, and there is not even a refund. I do not recommend dealing with you

[@kent2super9]

Please Avoid this product at all costs. The company literally stole my money yesterday. I will be filing a complaint with the better business bureau

[@user-oi7jt5jv6v]

Thats why you use the free trial. Sorry that happend to you now we know to pay for this.

[@allrequiredfields]

For fuck's sake, my kingom for an app that does motion tracking and doesn't require watching 20 minute videos that don't show you what you need.

[@roqueperez1090]

I thought it was free lols

[@Ded23601]

Nope. It's clickbait.

[@RC-gk1tm]

Kapwing is getting bad from 7 mins to 4 mins now.... next time what 2 mins?? The lousy video edit.....

[@Ded23601]

Don't waste your time on it. The company got greedy.

[@LookOutForNumberOne]

I love your gayness, it is so sweet. 7 minutes of free video is way too short for my interest.

Stay away from these people there hacking people's accounts!!!

Here's a simple tip: dont use the kapwing video editor in 2023.

[@Totalmotivation-iq6nd]

I don't believe on the aap it's fake aap

[@Hajamra]

You are a liar i tried using your website cause you said it was free so I start editing a 20 minute video and you guys expect me to pay 194 DOLLARS

[@eco-beehive]

THIS IS NOT FREE!! IF YOU DO NOT PAY YOU CANNOT EXPORT!!
