Upload Source Videos from Your Device
Add source footage from your computer so Bevyl can upload, process, and reuse those videos when generating new project drafts.

Setup
- Sign in to the workspace that should hold the footage.
- Required files or assets: source videos on your computer —
MP4,MOV, orWebM. - Review your files and remove duplicates first: Bevyl uploads everything you select, relevant or not.
- The upload dialog lists the workspace limits for video count, duration, and file size.
Step by step
1. Open Source Videos
From the sidebar, click Source Videos.
The title reads Source Videos; the action row holds search, sorting, view controls, and Upload video.

2. Open the upload dialog
Click Upload video.
The Add source videos dialog opens, with Source video limits at the top.
3. Choose videos from your computer
Check your files before you pick them — the upload starts the moment you finish selecting, with no confirmation step.
Click Select source videos and choose your videos, or drag them into the area marked Drag and drop or select files to upload.
If Bevyl rejects a file, match a replacement to the limits in the dialog.

4. Keep the tab open while Bevyl uploads
On desktop, the dialog closes and Source Videos shows each file as it uploads and prepares. On mobile, the dialog may stay open.
If Bevyl says Still uploading. Large videos can take longer., leave the tab open until it finishes.
5. Wait for the videos to become ready
After the upload, Bevyl prepares each video for editing; cards show Processing and Processing video… meanwhile.
A ready video's card shows See analysis. Click it: the detail page reads Ready with Add to new project.
Ready means the file processed — not that the footage is relevant, sharp, or right for your next project. Judge that yourself.
If one file fails while others succeed, handle it separately; the ready videos stay ready.
If something blocks you
- The picker rejects a file: use
MP4,MOV, orWebM. - The file is too large: upload a version under
5 GB. - The batch is too large: upload
50or fewer videos at a time. - Wrong or duplicate footage went up: leave it unselected when you create the project.
- The upload seems stuck: keep the tab open while cards show
ProcessingorProcessing video…. - A video is missing from project creation: its detail page must read
Readyfirst. - The upload failed: retry from the upload card, or try a smaller supported file.
Done
Every video you need shows See analysis, and its detail page reads Ready. There is no batch-level summary — sweep the library for failed, duplicate, or unwanted files before you create a project.
Next actions:
- Create a project from the ready footage.
- Unsure whether a video is still processing? See Understand upload and processing statuses.
