Remove everything from the playhead position to the end of the clip in a few simple steps.
The Trim end to playhead feature in the Firefly video editor makes it quick and easy to remove everything from the playhead onward, making the clip stop exactly at your chosen point. Instead of manually selecting and deleting the unwanted portion of the clip, this tool saves time and helps achieve precise edits.
Before you begin:
Create a new project and add media files to the timeline.
Scrub through the clip in the timeline and find the exact frame where you want the video to end, then place the playhead at that point.
Go to the top-left menu, select Clip, and then choose Trim end to playhead.
Tip
You can also press the keyboard shortcut W to instantly trim a selected clip from the playhead's position to the end of the timeline.
