Question:
Can I change the keyboard shortcuts used when playing back content in SnapStream so that they are similar to what I'm used to in Avid or Premiere?
Answer:
Yes you can! This is a new feature available in our 9.1 software and can be adjusted from the SnapStream User Profile Settings page.
- Sign into the SnapStream Web Interface and click the profile icon in the top right corner of the page > Profile Setings.
- Change the Shortcut Type from the default (SnapStream) according to your preference and click the Save button. Alternate options are Premiere and Avid.
Additional Notes:
This feature is only available in SnapStream Software version 9.1 and above.
