YouTube has announced the launch of a new video editing tool that can help users make changes to their streaming media content.
Designed to enable users to make quick fixes to their videos, the tool does not require people to reupload their content in order to make edits. Indeed, users are now set to be able to correct common editing problems, such as screen shake, brightness and removing unwanted clips at the front and back of an upload. YouTube product manager Jason Toff told CNET the idea came out of simply looking at the quality of some of the videos that have been uploaded in the past. He said: "We noticed a lot of the videos that were uploaded to YouTube could use some polish, some basic video editing." Meanwhile, Google and Movieclips recently announced an agreement to bring up to 20,000 movie titles to YouTube viewers - creating the largest collection of Hollywood movies anywhere on the web at the streaming media site - via Movie Extras on the YouTube VOD platform.
