What's New in Visuals
A rundown of everything we've shipped recently. Most of it lives in the video editor, with a few smaller improvements scattered across the rest of the app.
Per-clip duration
Your clips can now play their natural length. If you upload a 5-second performance shot, it plays for 5 seconds. If you upload 12 of those, every one plays in full.
If you want the opposite (every clip the same length, for a tight rhythmic cut), switch the new control to Fixed duration and pick anything from 0.1 to 30 seconds using chips, a slider, or precise numbers.
Previously, clips were locked to 1.75 seconds regardless of length, which meant uploading a long performance clip just got most of it cut off.
Section-by-section animations
You can now use different animations for the start of your video, the transitions between clips, and the outro. So you might want a hard cut at the very beginning so the first frame lands on-beat, smooth crossfades through the verse, and a slow Ken Burns push for the outro. Each section gets one-tap preset chips for the most common transitions, plus a full dropdown if you want more options. Intros default to hard cut so the first frame hits cleanly with the music.
This also means: when you "Apply fade to all," you actually get fades between every clip. (That used to silently produce hard cuts at some boundaries.)
Full song button
The song-section picker has a new Full chip next to 15 / 30 / 45 / 60. Tap it and your selection snaps to the entire song, no matter where you'd scrubbed before.
A redesigned timeline
The timeline now behaves like a professional video editor (think Premiere, Final Cut, DaVinci). What that means in practice:
Clips snap where you want them to. Drag a clip and it snaps to the start or end of other clips, to the playhead, and to lyric line boundaries. Dashed blue guides show you exactly where it will land.
Scrubbing is fluid. Drag the playhead knob, or press and drag anywhere on the time ruler, and the preview follows you smoothly.
Move multiple clips at once. Click and drag on empty timeline space to draw a marquee selection around several clips. Then grab any one of them and they all move together by the same amount. Undo restores the whole group in one step.
Drag clips past the end of your video. No more juggling everything else around just to insert a clip in the middle. Pull the timeline open, drop the clip in, done.
Crossfades just work. Crossfade markers are clickable, toggling them on or off doesn't shift the rest of your timeline around, and tiny accidental drags don't bump clips to a different row anymore.
A resizable timeline panel. Drag the handle above the timeline to give yourself more room when you're working in detail. Your size is remembered. Double-click the handle to reset.
Better at-a-glance reading. Each clip shows its duration and transition icon right on it. Thumbnails use letterboxing instead of being cropped to a center band, so you can actually tell what each clip is.
Sidebar
The biggest time-saver in this release is bulk actions. Open the three-dot menu on Volume, Playback Speed, Seamless Loop, or Animations and you'll see options to apply the current clip's setting to every video clip, or just to your selected clips. If you've ever tweaked the same setting on twelve clips in a row, this one's for you.
The sidebar also now shows a clip info block at the top with the file name, aspect ratio and resolution (for example, 16:9 Β· 1920Γ1080), and where it sits on the timeline. There's a Reset to full video button right in the header so you can undo any trim with one click. Sound clips get the same treatment with Reset to full audio.
The animation panel uses Enter and Exit tabs instead of nested dropdowns, with your current selection always visible. Selecting a sound clip now opens straight to its Settings tab instead of dropping you on the library tab.
There's also a new alignment system on the canvas: as you drag overlays around, snap and center guides appear to help you line things up.
Dark mode refresh
Dark mode is now properly black across the entire editor. The old blue-tinted slate, the gradient backgrounds, the thick hover borders β all gone. Cleaner, easier on your eyes during late-night sessions, more focused.
Your work saves automatically
If you move videos, images, or captions on the canvas and then refresh, those positions now stick. Same if you close the tab and come back later. Autosave is running quietly in the background, plus a final save fires when you leave the page so nothing recent is lost.
This was an honest-to-goodness bug, not a "feature." If you'd been hit by it before, you can stop saving paranoically now.
Upload anywhere
You can now upload directly from the spots where you actually need a file, instead of going back to your library first.
My Library has an upload button right next to the heading.
Canvas video picker (in the lyric video flow) lets you upload videos. You'll see a processing overlay with a "Check status" pill while we encode it, and the new clip drops straight into your grid when it's ready.
Album cover modal (in the lyric video flow) lets you upload your own cover art on mobile or desktop. Your uploads are mixed in chronologically with AI-generated covers.
Song selection in the image, video, and poster generators lets you upload songs without leaving the creator panel.
What we fixed
White flashes in exported videos. We tracked down and resolved random white flashes (a brief white bar at the bottom or a full-screen flash) that were appearing about ten times per minute in some renders. Exports are clean.
Video preview reliability. A handful of preview issues are resolved at once:
Remix references now use the first frame of your video instead of a frame two seconds in. AI-generated clips don't fade in, so the first frame is what you actually expect to see.
The asset viewer no longer gets stuck on a dark thumbnail.
The library page no longer gets stuck on a loading spinner.
Canvas-to-canvas remix shows the reference image preview right away instead of leaving the sidebar empty.
Dropdowns and selects across the app now position and open correctly. A subtle layout issue had been anchoring some of them to the top-left of the screen, or occasionally preventing them from opening at all.
Lyric videos end exactly on the song's end. Tiny rounding adding up across many clips used to leave videos that ended at 30.02s or 29.0s when they should have ended at 30.0s. The last clip is now snapped to the song's end precisely.
Cursor stuck after dragging. Dragging the playhead or a resize handle and releasing outside the timeline used to leave your cursor stuck in resize or grab state. Fixed.
Smoother and faster
Editor crashes on certain projects. If you'd been hitting a crash when opening projects with media overlays, that root cause is resolved. Stable now.
Long library browsing sessions. Library thumbnails now load on hover instead of all at once, so you can scroll through a deep library without it gradually slowing down your browser.
Long edit sessions. Autosave during continuous editing was getting starved. It runs reliably now, even during marathon sessions.
Preview playback stutter. The preview player was pausing briefly on every buffer boundary, which produced a stutter. Disabled in preview only β final renders are unaffected.
