Sometimes you need several similar videos, each tailored to a different audience. To save time, Synthesia has a duplicate option for your videos.
✍️ Duplication requires a Full license. Restricted licenses can't duplicate videos, and Free licenses may trigger an upgrade prompt when you try.
Duplicate a Video
Go to the video you want to copy in My Videos.
Select the three-dot menu on the video.
Select Duplicate.
Synthesia creates a copy of your video project. You can edit the copy while keeping your original project unchanged.
💡 Tip: A duplicate is made from the version that is currently saved. Before you duplicate, check the cloud icon in the editor shows your latest edits are saved. To copy a specific earlier version, open Show version history and duplicate the snapshot you want.
💬 FAQs
Why did my duplicate copy an older version of my video?
Why did my duplicate copy an older version of my video?
Duplicating uses the last saved state of your video, not necessarily what's currently on your screen. If you were still editing, check the save-status icon before duplicating, or duplicate a specific snapshot from Version History instead.
