Read more	SpotOn is technically a very useful software that allows clients to clip, edit and share bits & parts from their live streams. These bits and clips that are captured from live streams can be directly shared to other online streaming platforms within minutes and with all required modifications incorporated. The interface is simply designed to benefit not just seasoned videographers and content developers but the newly budding developers too. Moreover, clients can directly start clipping and highlighting portions from their live stream while playing it in the background. This allows them to be ready for the next viable instance for highlighting. A visualised scene change detection facility backed by AI automatically identifies and marks moments in the live stream that might stand worthy of being clipped out or highlighted. These clips are all modifiable with a range of preloaded effects and changes. Frames can be trimmed, enabling clients to incorporate perfect beginning and ending sequences. Without expert video editing skills at hand, clients can easily include introductions, disclaimers and overlays. Read more
