Upload Source Videos from Your Device

Setup

• Sign in to the workspace where you want to upload source videos.
• Open Source Videos from the left sidebar.
• Required files or assets: source video files on your computer.
• Use video files only: MP4, MOV, or WebM.
• Remove duplicate files before you choose them; Bevyl treats each selected file as a separate upload.
• The upload dialog lists the current limits: max 50 videos, 25 minutes per video, and 5 GB file size.
• Review the files before you select them. Bevyl uploads the video files you choose, including duplicates or footage that is not relevant to the project you plan to create.

Step by step

1. Open Source Videos

From the workspace sidebar, click Source Videos.

The page title should read Source Videos. The action row includes search, sorting, view controls, and Upload video.

2. Open the upload dialog

Click Upload video.

The Add source videos dialog opens. At the top, Source video limits lists the upload rules for the workspace.

3. Choose videos from your computer

Before you click Select source videos, confirm the files are the exact source footage you want in this workspace. Bevyl starts uploading as soon as you finish selecting files.

Click Select source videos, then choose videos from your computer.

You can also drag video files into the upload area. The dialog says Drag and drop or select files to upload.

There is no extra confirmation step after the file picker. Duplicates and unrelated footage upload too if you select them.

4. Keep the tab open while Bevyl uploads

After the upload starts, keep Bevyl open.

On desktop, the dialog closes and the Source Videos page shows each file as it uploads and prepares. On mobile, the dialog may stay open so you can watch each file.

Large videos can take longer. If Bevyl says Still uploading. Large videos can take longer., wait for the upload to finish before closing the tab.

5. Wait for the videos to become ready

After file upload finishes, Bevyl prepares the videos for editing. Individual video cards may show Processing and Processing video… while Bevyl works.

When a source video is ready, its card shows See analysis.

Click See analysis to open the video detail page. The video is processed when the detail page shows Ready and Add to new project.

Ready means Bevyl processed the file. It does not confirm that the footage is relevant, high quality, or the right source for your next project.

If one file fails while others continue processing, handle the failed file separately. Ready videos can still show See analysis even when another file needs a retry.

If something blocks you

• File picker rejects a file: choose a video file in MP4, MOV, or WebM.
• File is too large: upload a smaller version under 5 GB.
• Batch is too large: upload 50 or fewer videos at a time.
• Duplicate files were uploaded: keep the version you want to use, and do not select the duplicate when you create a project.
• Upload seems stuck: keep the tab open while the affected cards show Processing or Processing video….
• The video is missing from project creation: open the source video detail page and confirm it shows Ready.
• Wrong or duplicate footage uploaded: do not select that source video when you create the project.
• Upload failed: open Fix upload failures and retry the failed file.

Done

You are done when each uploaded video you need shows See analysis in Source Videos or opens to a detail page with Ready. Bevyl does not show one batch-level success summary, so check the source library for failed, duplicate, or unwanted files before creating a project.

Next actions:

• Create a project from ready source videos.
• Check Understand upload and processing statuses if you are not sure whether a video is still processing.
