    Probably a good idea to check out your 2hr tutorial. I'm new to Descript and not at all tech savvy. Editing and moving things around has been incredibly frustrating and strangely when I mimic things that I've learned from other tutorials it doesn't work or messes up other things. I "Undo" a LOT. Editing is my least favorite thing and I was REALLY hoping Descript was going to relieve the stress. Just impatient with learning the platform. Thank you for the help.

      My pleasure! My original motto was "Descript is amazing, but frustrating. We fix that" so I totally get it! I also do one-on-one tutoring if the tutorials aren't cutting it

      yes like every descprit video tutorial is made by folks from a place of knowing where it is assumed the viewer knows certain things. I would love to find one where it is assumed that the viewer knows nothing! I am on hour 3 of trying to figure how to do a split screen. Descipt seems more difficult than brain surgery or photoshop

    I’m convinced millennial pause is caused by the trauma we’ve had recording only to find the first few seconds is lopped off due to buffering or something.

    Great tutorial, though I was hoping you'd talk about subtitles and how to unhide the timeline when hidden. I haven't quite mastered these features. Do you have any video on those?

    • @DescriptMastery

      My most watched video is a 2.5 tutorial where i go much deeper into just about everything. I also recently did this livestream where I went deep on titles and captions: ua-cam.com/video/1SvTPRPe_m8/v-deo.html
      Concerning unhiding timeline, its the button in the bottom left of the editing window. Is that what youre looking for or something more?

      @@DescriptMastery The timeline area just went blank after I tried to hide the timeline for a bit. There was no button anywhere to unhide,guess I'll try again. But thank you for your response. I'll watch your Livestream video to understand more.

      @@doreenyong1483 That sounds like a bug. The timeline should only have two properties: open and closed which you can toggle between with the icon in the bottom left (that says “show timeline”). Unless I’m misunderstanding, it sounds like something weird might be happening!

    Can you show us how you put in your metadata please?

    • @DescriptMastery
      @DescriptMastery  11 днів тому

      Are you asking about the metadata when exporting a project? I don't usually do anything with that. I usually publish directly to UA-cam for most things, and you can't change the metadata in that case. But what do you want to do with the metadata? If you let me know a bit about what you're using it for, I could make a video on this topic :)

    Can I connect a GoPro 9 to descript and use it to record? If so, please explain how to do.

    • @DescriptMastery
      @DescriptMastery  2 місяці тому

      I can't speak from experience as I don't have a GoPro. But, I did a quick search and it appears it's possible. You'll need to connect it to you computer via USB then after hitting the record button, you need to choose the GoPro as your webcam. Hope this helps!
