Requires RSFV PRO 1.40.0 and Really Simple Featured Video 1.0.0 or newer. For the basics, see Auto generate featured videos with Video Studio.
Video Studio PRO adds to the free Video Studio. There is nothing to turn on. Once PRO is active, the extras show up in the Video Studio editor and on the JetixWP → Video Studio page.
If the free plugin is older than 1.0.0, the Plugins screen says Video Studio PRO needs Really Simple Featured Video 1.0.0 or newer. Everything else in PRO keeps working.

More frame sizes
These are added to the Frame size list:
- 9:16, 1080 x 1920 (Stories, Reels, Shorts)
- 4:5, 1080 x 1350 (feed)
- 16:9, 1080p at 60 fps
- 16:9, 4K (3840 x 2160)
The Frame size only sets the video file. To show vertical videos in a vertical frame on your site, set the Video Aspect Ratio to 9/16. See PRO: Features and settings overview.
Larger sizes take longer to make.
Music
Open the Music tab in the editor and click Choose music to pick an audio file from your Media Library. Use music you have the rights to.
| Setting | What it does | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Volume | 0 to 100. | 80 |
| Start the track at (seconds) | Skips the start of the track. | 0 |
| Fade in | Fades the music in at the start. | On |
| Fade out | Fades the music out at the end. | On |
| Repeat if shorter than the video | Plays the track again until the video ends. | On |
Click Change track or Remove to swap or drop it. If your browser cannot record audio, the video is made without sound.
Brand kit
Save your colors, font, and logo once, and new videos start with them.
- Open any template and set Background, Accent, Text, Font, and Logo on the Style tab.
- Open the Brand kit tab and click Save these as brand kit.
New videos use the brand kit. Videos you already made keep their own look. To apply the brand kit to the template you are editing, click Use brand kit here. Only administrators can save the brand kit.
Every Google Font
The Font field lists every Google Fonts family, with a search box. The first time you use a family, your site downloads it once and keeps it in wp-content/uploads/rsfv-studio-fonts/. After that it is served from your site.
Fonts are only used while the video is made, since the text becomes part of the video. Visitors never load them. PRO also includes the Platypi, Beiruti, and Fira Code fonts.
Make videos for many entries at once
- Go to JetixWP → Video Studio and tick the entries. Use Only without a video to find entries that still need one.
- Click Make videos.
- Pick a Template and Frame size. Optional: turn on Replace existing videos or Also use the poster as featured image.
- Click Make N videos (for example Make 12 videos) and keep the tab open until it finishes.
Each video is filled from its own entry, one after another. Templates that fill themselves work best: Product card, Image slideshow, Product showcase, and Sale. Entries that already have a video are skipped unless Replace existing videos is on. Bulk videos have no music. Click Stop to end the run early.
Big videos
Free keeps each video under your host’s upload limit. With PRO, larger videos are uploaded in pieces, up to 1 GB, so big sizes such as 4K keep their quality. You do not need to change anything.
