How do I replace the video file without losing my interactions?

1. Open the video in the editor.
2. If you need a copy of the current file, go to More and select Download source first.
3. Go to More and select Replace source video.
4. The New video page opens with the banner Replacing Video and the video title. Select a source: Upload, Link or a platform.
5. Add the new file. The editor opens with the new source.
6. Play the video from start to end and move any interaction that is now at the wrong time.
7. Update the transcript, captions and translations if the words changed (see below).

• Interactions and their times.
• Design, settings, lead capture and end screen.
• The share link and the embed code.
• The video’s place in your library. A replace does not add a video to your count.

• Timing: interactions keep their times. If you cut or added footage, move the interactions that are now in the wrong place, and delete any that are after the new end.
• Transcript and captions: the existing transcript and caption tracks move to the new file. They are not made again. If the words changed, delete the transcript and create a new one, and upload new caption files.
• Translations: a published translated audio track is removed from the video. Submit the translation again on Translate.
• Original file: Mindstamp deletes the old source file when no other video uses it. Download it before you replace it if you need it.

If you change the file at the host and keep the same link, Mindstamp keeps playing that link. The host can take some time to deliver the new file. If you have a new link, use Replace source video.

If the editor shows Video link unreachable, select Replace video in the alert to go to the same replace flow.
