Watch a video testimonial inside Magic Testimonials, jump to its best moments, and fix a video that is sideways or mirrored.

Find the player

Open a video testimonial. The player is at the top of the left column. The video's length shows under it as Duration.

A tall video from a phone gets a tall player. If you see Mirrored (flipped left to right) under the video, the file is mirrored, which is common with older front-camera recordings.

If you see Speed buttons under the video, click 0.5x, 1x, 1.5x or 2x to change how fast it plays.

Jump to a moment

AI picks the best moments in a video. In the AI picks card, click the time next to a moment and the video starts there.

The Best moments list in AI picks, with a time button beside the moment.

This is a quick way to check that AI's quote matches what the person said. See Auto-summarization.

Fix a sideways or mirrored video

An Owner or Admin can correct the direction of a finished video.

  1. Under the player, click Flip video, Rotate left or Rotate right.

  2. Click the button again in the question that appears, or click Cancel.

The Flip video, Rotate left and Rotate right buttons.

This makes a new copy of the video, which takes a minute or two. The current video stays until the new one is ready. The page then shows the new video by itself.
