- Edit your project timeline, effects, and transitions non-destructively.
- Save your progress to resume editing later without losing changes.
- Share WVE project files alongside source media for collaboration.
- Export final videos to common formats after completing edits.
Key Features
- Stores editable timeline and effects data instead of encoded video frames.
- Maintains references to source media and editing metadata.
- Enables project-level portability between Wondershare Video Editor installations.
- Supports non-destructive editing and repeatable exports at various quality settings.
- Typically smaller in size compared to rendered video files.
Examples
- Download sample WVE files to practice editing timelines and effects.
- Use sample projects to test software compatibility or learn editing workflows.
- Open shared WVE files to continue collaborative video editing projects.
Common Use Cases
- Save and resume non-destructive editing sessions in Wondershare Video Editor.
- Transfer editing projects including timelines and effects between workstations.
- Archive editable project files for future re-editing or exporting.
- Collaborate by exchanging project files and referencing shared media.
Tips & Best Practices
- Always use the same version of Wondershare Video Editor or Filmora to open WVE files.
- Keep all referenced source media files organized to prevent project breakage.
- Regularly back up your project files and associated media for safe editing.
- Avoid renaming or moving source media after linking them in the project.
- Export completed projects to standard video formats for broader compatibility.
Limitations
- Requires Wondershare Video Editor or Filmora software to open and export projects.
- Cannot be played directly as a video; must be exported to viewable formats.
- Projects may fail if referenced media files are missing, renamed, or moved.
- Not compatible with other non-linear editors due to proprietary format nature.
