Now coming to editing flat videos from the Insta 360 One X footage, the fastest way would be to use your mobile phone. The fastest way to edit flat videos from Insta 360 One X The card used by Insta 360 One X is fast enough to let you edit video footage smoothly. Import the video footage into the 360 apps without copying the video to your computer, which is going to takes extra time.

The footage will look a little weird since you will be viewing the entire 360 view in a flat-frame, but don’t worry, your editing software will recognize it as a 360 footage when you select the option.īoth Adobe Premiere Pro and Final Cut Pro have the option to edit 360 videos, we will talk about both in further in the article. One thing to make sure before processing the 360 footage in the Insta 360 Studio app, you need to select Equirectangular, which appears somewhere on the top in the middle (Simple click on the ‘View’ not ‘Freecapture’). Once you take care of all these things, process the videos and turn them into mp4, you so that you can combine them in one big video that can be uploaded to either Facebook or YouTube.

When you download the Insta 360 studio app for your Mac or Windows PC, it also downloads the plugin for Adobe Premiere Pro, which allows you to import.

The mobile apps will only allow you to every frame 360 videos to create standard videos, so using your mobile phone for editing 360 videos is out of the question.īefore we talk further about editing 360 videos on a COmputer, I would like to mention that you need a powerful PC with at least 8 GB of RAM, Core i5 Processor, that is capable of handling 4K editing since we will be working with 5.3 ke footage, which is more significant than 4K.

Fortunately, Insta 360 provides apps for both PC and mobile.
