Renee Video Editor Pro is the editing software which can record screen, edit video and convert formats. Before recording screen, we can set the recording area, watermark, cursor style, sound source, target format and auto recording schedule. The online movie, conference video, video game and software operation process can be recorded and saved.

Besides, we can use the software to improve videos. For example, we can cut and merge videos, crop, rotate and flip video screen, add video opening/ending, transitions, filters, background music and subtitles, and remove the original sounds. Many formats, such as MXF, AVI, MKV, MP4, MOV, M2TS, M4V, AAC and AC3, can be converted.
