Tagging Basics
In order to start tagging a video or a group of videos you need to have at least one tag (see Tag Management) and have a video group currently playing (see Video Management). Once that's all setup click the plus button on the timeline
and select the tags you want to use. Next, right-click on the timeline. A menu will appear with the following options:
- Add timestamp
- Add segment
- Add timestamp at marker
- Add segment at marker
- Start segment at marker
- End segment at marker
After selecting one of the first four options, a popup will appear. If you selected one of the options with "timestamp"
, you'll be able to select the time at which the timestamp will be created. If you selected one of the options with "segment"
, you'll be able to select where the segment will start and end. Clicking "OK"
will create the timestamp or segment.
Selecting "Start segment at marker"
won't have immediately visible effects. However, once you click "End segment at marker"
, a popup will appear, showing the start and end times set to the positions of the time marker when "Start segment at marker"
and "End segment at marker"
were selected, respectively. If you click "Start segment at marker"
and then "End segment at marker"
without moving the time marker, a timestamp will be created instead of a segment.
If you try to create a timestamp/segment which would overlap an already existing timestamp/segment a popup will appear asking whether to merge the segments. Selecting "Yes"
will merge the segment you want to create and the existing segment, while selecting "No"
will cancel the timestamp/segment creation.
Timestamps and segments are saved on a per video group basis.
