When we put a video tag in the middle or at a certain duration, it will be trimmed to the beginning of the video (to the left) and only leave the video part on the right.
For example, a 10 minute video that we will cut. We put the cutter mark at a duration of 4 minutes, now from this duration it will cut the video down to a duration of 0 minutes (initial) and delete it, so that what is left is only the video part from 4 minutes to 10 minutes.
Crop to the right of the playhead
This is also not much different from the above, it’s just that in the explanation above we trim to the left, while this method trims the video to the right (end) so that it will only leave the video part at the beginning.
