Baseball Video Clipper is a PC app that is included with a FlightScope Cloud purchase. It is an application that automatically cuts any video, and syncs that specific video with each triggered event recorded from the X3B.

In the upper left hand corner under the video tab, ‘Match video with first timeline event’ will place the beginning of the video at the first timestamp of the X3B from the selected session. From there, toggle the video to line up the first triggered event from the X3B.

Before you upload any video, ensure ‘use webm video format’ is checked before exporting the clip. This is found on the upper left corner under the Video tab.
