Video ​

A Video is a multi-track video you create in MotherFluxer and edit on a timeline. Videos live under the Media filter group in Artifacts, alongside your other visual work. Generate one from chat, upload your own, then refine it clip by clip in the timeline editor.

Create a video ​

You have two ways to get a Video into MotherFluxer:

  • Generate from chat — describe the video you want and send it. When a model option chooser appears, pick from the model options shown, each with its cost and speed. The finished Video lands in your Artifacts under the Media filter.
  • Upload — bring in a video file you already have. It becomes a Video artifact you can open and edit just like a generated one.

Either way, the result is a multi-track Video on a timeline, ready to edit.

Open the timeline editor ​

Open a Video to enter the timeline editor. Across the top you'll see mode tabs:

  • Direct Edit — the hands-on toolset for changing how the video looks and how each clip plays. This is where all video editing happens.
  • Snapshot — capture the current state of your Video as a saved point you can return to.

There is no Smart Edit for video yet — video is editing-only, so you drive every change yourself in Direct Edit.

Direct Edit tools ​

Direct Edit gives you a focused set of tools for shaping your Video:

  • Color — adjust the color of your video.
  • Filter — apply a preset look. Video filters share the same preset spec as image filters, so the looks you know from editing Images carry over here.
  • Adjust — the deepest panel. Per-clip controls include:
    • Trim — set where a clip starts and ends.
    • Speed — make a clip faster or slower.
    • Fade in / Fade out — ease a clip in and out.
    • Reverse — play a clip backward.
    • Loop — repeat a clip.
    • Fit / Aspect — control how the clip fills the frame.
    • Adjust also carries the project-level Aspect ratio and Output resolution, and lets you add a track or add audio to your Video.
  • Doodle — draw directly on your video.

Timeline transport ​

The timeline gives you full playback control while you edit:

  • Play / Pause / Stop — run your edit and stop it where you need.
  • Loop — replay continuously while you fine-tune.
  • Scrub — drag the playhead to jump to any moment.
  • Zoom — zoom the timeline in for precise edits or out for the full picture.

Use the transport to check every change in context before you commit to it.

Undo and Redo ​

Every edit is reversible:

  • Undo — step back through your recent changes.
  • Redo — reapply a change you undid.

Edit boldly — you can always walk a change back.

Export to MP4 ​

When your Video is ready to leave MotherFluxer, export it:

  • Open the Export dialog from the editor.
  • Choose MP4 to render your finished Video.
  • Confirm to start the export.

Export runs a server render, not an instant download. MotherFluxer renders the full Video on its servers and hands you the finished MP4 when it's done, so a longer or higher-resolution Video takes a bit longer to prepare. Leave the dialog to do its work and grab the file once the render completes.
