3. Locate the region of the video you would like to remove. Then, left-click on the playback track area and drag the mouse to create a gray, shadowed highlighted portion of the video. 

  • Create as many of these highlighted regions as needed.

  • When Panopto plays the video, it will skip over any highlighted region.

  • Highlighted regions can always be changed should you make a mistake or change your mind in the future.
