Video highlight

In the era of information explosion, video has become a primary medium for news and learning resources. Noteey's video highlight feature helps users efficiently learn from videos by making time-stamped notes for quick reference and reuse.

Local Video Highlights​

Importing Videos​

There are two ways to import local videos:

  • On the canvas: Click the File icon in the toolbar, then choose between import mode (creating a copy) or link mode (reading the original video directly to save storage).
  • In the Library: Click Import in the top-right corner to add videos to the Library, making them reusable across different projects and cards.

Library Management of Highlights​

In the Library, each highlight is an independent entity:

  • Clicking a video highlight automatically plays the video from the highlighted timestamp.
  • Users can edit notes and timestamps of the video highlight.
  • The Locate button helps jump to the timestamp and view all highlights for a video.
  • Users can see which projects and cards reference the highlight.
  • Multi-select highlights to add tags for classification.
  • Select multiple highlights and add them to a project.
