Show pauses in a video transcript in a few simple steps.
Showing pauses in a video transcript during editing is important because it helps identify natural speech breaks, making it easier to trim, rearrange, or perform other edits.
When working with Timeline, visible pauses in the transcript help you determine where to add other video elements, such as music, text, or visuals. This not only saves time but also helps you create smoother, more natural edits, making the final video feel more polished and professional.
Use the icon to select the Show pauses option.
Once enabled, the transcript shows pauses as continuous dots, and they can be treated like any other text in the transcript.
