Default settings by scenario

Prefer clean MP4 exports from your editor or phone for the most predictable results.
Trim clips to the segment you actually need so processing stays fast and review stays focused.
Review the final export on the same device size where you plan to publish it.
If a clip contains screens or badges, plan a photo-mode follow-up for still frames that need manual masking.

Post-export verification checklist

Most privacy misses happen in the final 10%: compressed previews, reflected details, or crop variants. Treat verification as part of the workflow, not an optional step.

Check thumbnail and compressed preview versions, not just the full file.
Run one final pass for secondary identifiers (badges, street numbers, documents).
Open the final video in full-screen and confirm identifiers are unreadable.
