Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, existing methods for editing video content items ("videos") are cumbersome and inefficient, especially for novice users
For example, editing a video to a desired resolution size or cropping an area is tedious and creates a significant cognitive load on the user
Additionally, existing methods take longer than necessary, wasting energy

Embodiment Construction

[0025] Video editing can involve combining video clips of different resolutions and aspect ratios into sequences that form the final video. If the video clips do not conform to a single resolution and aspect ratio, transitions between portions in the final video can be jarring and annoying to the viewer. Some video editing applications attempt to make the process of conforming to resolution and aspect ratio more user-friendly by automatically trimming and scaling video clips. However, automatic cropping and scaling may not produce the desired results for the user. Embodiments described below facilitate overriding automatic trimming and scaling of videos so that users can quickly and easily edit videos to achieve desired results. Overrides to automatic trimming and zooming include gestures to activate various manual overrides, eg, repositioning, resizing, and / or rotating a trimmed video region. The ability to override automatic cropping and scaling provides the user with the ...

Abstract

An electronic device with a display and a touch-sensitive surface automatically crops a video content item in an editing mode of a video application; displays an automatically cropped area of the video content item on the display in the editing mode of the video application; and, while displaying the cropped area of the video content item on the display in the editing mode of the video application: detects a gesture on the touch-sensitive surface; and, in response to detecting the gesture on the touch-sensitive surface: overrides automatic cropping of the video content item by modifying the cropped area of the video content item in accordance with the gesture; and displays the modified cropped area of the video content item on the display.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to electronic devices with touch-sensitive surfaces, including but not limited to electronic devices with touch-sensitive surfaces for editing video. Background technique [0002] The use of touch-sensitive surfaces as input devices for computers and other electronic computing devices has increased significantly in recent years. Exemplary touch-sensitive surfaces include touchpads and touchscreen displays. Such surfaces are widely used for manipulating user interface objects on displays. [0003] Exemplary user interface objects include video content items. Exemplary manipulations include video editing operations such as resizing, rotating, and translating. A user may need to edit video content items (e.g., video clips) to perform such manipulations. [0004] However, existing methods for editing video content items ("videos") are cumbersome and inefficient, especially for novice users. For example, editing...
