Scene Detection in Video

Automatically splits a video into smaller segments based on a selected face detected within the video

Video Scene Detection Feature

The Scene Detection Video feature allows the system to automatically split a video into multiple smaller segments based on the faces detected in the video.

With video scene detection feature, users can:

• View all segments generated from the original video.

• Download individual segments.

• Edit each segment independently (similar to the Video Editor on the Asset Detail page) and save it as a new version or a new asset.

• Merge the segments into a new video and edit it (similar to the Video Editor on the Asset Detail page), then save it as a new version or a new asset.

👉 Note: Scene Detection only works if Face Detection has already been processed on the video.
