Understand Upload and Processing Statuses
Know which upload and processing labels mean a video is still moving, ready to edit, or needs a retry.

Setup
- Sign in to the workspace where you uploaded source videos, and have a recent upload to inspect.
- Required files or assets: none.
- The status card appears in the left sidebar only while something is uploading, processing, or freshly ready; otherwise it hides.
Step by step
1. Open Source Videos
From the left sidebar, click Source Videos.
The title reads Source Videos; the action row includes Upload video when you can add footage.

2. Start or watch an upload
Click Upload video and choose clips.
On desktop, the dialog closes once the upload starts and progress moves to the sidebar. On mobile, the dialog stays open so you can watch each file.
3. Read the batch status
The status card's title describes the whole batch:
Uploading videos: file data is still leaving your browser.Preparing videos: the upload landed; Bevyl is readying it for editing.Uploads complete: uploading is done, though videos may still be preparing.Upload failed: one or more files did not make it — clickRetry failed.
If the card adds Still uploading. Large videos can take longer., keep the tab open.
4. Read each file row
The card lists up to five active items — failed first, then uploading, processing, ready, and complete.
Each label tells you what to do:
Uploading: keep the tab open.Processing: Bevyl has the file and is preparing it.Uploaded: that file's upload finished.Failed: clickRetry failed, or upload the file again.Queued: the video waits its turn to process.Ready: the video is available to edit.
With more than five active items, the card shows +N more — and counts any hidden failures in that line.
5. Check the Source Videos page
Processing videos show Processing video… on their card; in list view, the pills read Processing and Analyzing.
A ready video shows See analysis, which opens its detail page.
Error means processing failed — re-upload the clip, or contact support if it fails again.
6. Check the video detail page
Click See analysis on any card.
The status sits near the top of the page; a ready video reads Ready.

7. Choose email notification if you need to leave
While the batch is active, select Email me when all videos are ready. and go — Bevyl will write when preparation finishes.
If something blocks you
Upload failed: clickRetry failed; if it fails again, check the file size, type, and your connection.Processingnever changes: give large videos a few minutes with the page open.Error: upload a fresh copy, or contact support with the video name and workspace.
Done
