2. Click Edit. The editor will now open in another menu. 
3. Once the video editor is open, you will see the timeline at the bottom of the screen with a track for each stream included in your recording. These feeds should be designated primary (P1), secondary (S1), and slides (SL). (see Panopto: Record with multiple video sources for more details on this feature
4. Click a feed and drag your cursor over a portion of it to select it. You will know which part you selected because it will be highlighted grey.
5. Click Cut . Whatever portion of the feed you selected will disappear.
6. Make sure the box next to Preview Cuts during Playback is checked. Click the Play  icon to see how effective the cuts are.
