Hey Jumpcutters,

Yes, there is an error that’s causing audio of newly uploaded files to not work correctly in the editor. The engineers are aware of this and are working on a fix. In particular, you will notice that it may cause slideshows to not play at all. You can fix that by removing any new audio tracks. I realize this is an inconvenience, but we hope to have everything back to normal soon.

cheers

For those of you who have had trouble contacting Jumpcut Support over the past week or so, the email address is working again. Unfortunately, our Customer Care team didn’t receive any emails sent between November 23rd and December 2nd.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Jumpcut releases these secret videos highlighting the technology that allows you to make your own movies.

Look at all these features. If you thought getting bought was going to make us lazy, think again folks.

Your very own personal home.
All your media is listed in a easy-to-sift-through fashion. Latest activity shows up on your right, where you can see comments on your movies, who loved your movies, what your friends are doing on jumpcut, and other stuff we knew you wanted to know.

Open movies.
You can now make open movies that everyone can edit together! When other jumpcut users edit your open movie your movie is updated with their changes instead of splitting off into a seperate version (this can be good, or bad, so be careful). Think wiki video.

Editor stuff.
Undo/redo (by popular demand), resize your workspace, new styles (try the jumpcut), high quality preview (see what your movies will look like without leaving the editor), clip indicators on tiles, help, and so on.

The you-can-organize-your-media-without-pulling-your-hair-out feature.
Use check boxes to select multiple items and tag/delete/put them in a set all at once.

Sets make their public debut.
So hide the bad stuff. On the other hand, you can organize your media and send a link to your friends without making a movie. You can also quickly make a movie out of content another user has organized. On top of all that, you can send your friends a link to your page that doesn’t look like garblygook ( here is mine: http://www.jumpcut.com/ashot ).

Also, jumpcut looks better, is easier to understand, and is much improved in ways I don’t care to continue listing here, so you’ll have to try it yourself. It’s just cool, man, you know.
