After recording a video using Elgato Video Capture, you can trim it in the built-in editor. Move the slider from the left to remove unwanted sections at the beginning of the video. Similarly, adjust the slider on the right to trim the end of the video. This allows you to remove blue screens, static, or unnecessary content. Once trimming is complete, click "Continue" to finalize the edit.
