Rough cut
You are recording, a sentence goes wrong, you tap Back to sentence and say it again. The rough cut removes exactly these abandoned attempts: from the start of the fluffed attempt to where you start again, including the pause and any ad-libbed speech in between. Part of Prompt Flower Pro.
How it works
Section titled “How it works”- Open the script, Recordings tab.
- Touch and hold the recording (or … in the player) and choose Rough cut ….
- Suggested cuts lists one entry per restart: the first words of the repeated sentence, the time range and the length.
- Preview range plays the cut with 2 seconds before and after.
- Switch off cuts you want to keep.
- Create rough cut. At the bottom you see how much is removed and how much remains.
The rough cut becomes a new recording (“Rough cut of …”). The original recording stays unchanged, and you can delete the rough cut again. Video is cut without re-encoding; subtitles and markers are recalculated for the rough cut.
Warnings
Section titled “Warnings”Some cuts are uncertain. They show a note in orange:
| Warning | Meaning |
|---|---|
| No resume detected – the cut ends where you jumped back. | After the jump back, recognition did not find the sentence again. |
| Long cut (over 20 s) | An unusual amount would be removed. |
| May remove text that was not read again. | The cut may take out something you only said once. |
| Removes ad-libbed speech. | The range contains speech that is not in the script. |
Uncertain cuts are not always preselected. Listen to them before you switch them on.
No cuts?
Section titled “No cuts?”“This recording has no restarts with “Back to sentence” or “Back to paragraph”.” The rough cut needs these jumps back as markers. Next time, tap Sentence in the camera bar after a slip.
After a slip, stop briefly, tap Sentence, take a breath and start the sentence again. A short pause before the restart gives the cut some room.
