Video player example
- There are a number of features to allow you to view and share your video.
- Note that some of these features require a UserTesting Pro subscription.
Playback speed
- Control the playback speed of your video incrementally, from .5x to 3.0x.
- This feature saves time as you review videos.
- We recommend giving 1.5x a try and adjusting the speed as needed based on the contributor
Keyboard shortcuts
Keyboard shortcuts allow you to access key features within the video player without having to move your hands from the keyboard.
Notable shortcuts:
- Play/Pause the video: Space
- Rewind 5 seconds: Left arrow <--
- Forward 5 seconds: Right arrow -->
- New note: n
- New clip: c
- Cancel note or clip: ESC
- Save note or clip: enter
- Increase playback speed: >
- Decrease playback speed: <
Adding a bookmark to a video
- UserTesting's videos can be watched at high speed.
- Flag the parts that sound insightful, then go back and compile those moments into a video highlight reel.
- Press the 'B' key while the video is playing to add a bookmark to your video.
- The video will continue playing, but that point in the video will be flagged with a blank note for basic customers (if you purchase your tests individually).
- Premium subscription customers will receive a video clip that includes a transcription of the contributor's last two comments (via speech recognition*).
- Note: Speech recognition for the bookmark feature is facilitated by third-party technology. If your company has expressed concern to us about sending your UserTesting data through a third party, you’ll receive a blank note instead of the clip.
Sharing your video
- You have several options for sharing your video with colleagues and team members.
- Open the sharing menu at the bottom of the video player to get started.
Share the video link
When you select Share, you have the option of copying the link and drafting your own email or entering the recipient's email address and we send the link for you or share via Slack.
Email your video
- If you share via email, log-in may be required for others to view the video, depending on the privacy settings of your account and the video's workspace.
- In this case, a recipient who isn’t already a member of the account will be invited to join as a collaborator or viewer.
Share via Slack
You can also share UserTesting tests, sessions, clips, and highlight reels to private and public Slack channels
