Introduction

AI text-based editing has arrived, bringing a powerful tool that allows users to edit videos as straightforwardly as editing a Word document. If you're looking to save time while working on long spoken sections of blogs or documentaries, this feature could transform your editing process. For those who use PowerDirector, it's easy to try out this new functionality by either launching it on your computer while following along with this tutorial or downloading it through the provided links.

Accessing Text-Based Editing in PowerDirector

There are two methods to access the AI text-based editing feature in PowerDirector:

  1. Click on the "Text Based Editing" button in the launcher.
  2. Open an existing project, select the video clip you wish to edit, click on 'Edit,' and find the text-based editing option under the video tools tab.

Before proceeding with the transcription, ensure that you select the language that corresponds to the content of your video files.

Features of AI Text-Based Editing

Upon activating the feature, you'll encounter several functionalities designed to streamline your workflow:

  • Transcription: On the left side, you will see the fully transcribed text of your video clip, while the timeline at the bottom shows blue sections highlighting pauses in your speech. These highlighted segments align with blue dashes in the transcription.

  • Remove Pauses: A handy option to delete all pauses is available via a button at the top of the window. Once selected, the blue highlights turn gray, indicating they've been removed. If you change your mind, you can easily restore all pauses.

  • Edit Audio via Text: Another useful aspect is the ability to delete or modify spoken audio directly through the transcription text. Highlight the part you want to edit, and a box will pop up, offering options to delete or modify. Choosing to delete will strikethrough the text and remove it from the video, while modify will allow you to edit the transcription without altering the audio.

  • Automatic Subtitles: The modified text serves as subtitles, which will be automatically added to your project once you click the 'Add to Timeline' button at the end of your editing session.

Conclusion

This AI text-based editing tool is particularly advantageous for cutting down lengthy Vlogs, candid talking head segments, and interview clips in documentaries. If you've previously spent hours editing out pauses and mistakes in speech, this innovative feature will undoubtedly revolutionize your editing workflow.
