Simple video editing with a step-by-step interface.

Hold on to your hats, folks, 'cause we've got an amazing video editing application headed your way: honestech Video Editor! This little wonder is all about giving you the power to personalize your clips, and it does so in style.

The working environment is clean and simple, with the possibility of dragging and dropping files directly into the primary panel. But that's just the tip of the iceberg. The program offers support for not one, but two navigation modes: one for rookies and one for professional users.

Plus, honestech Video Editor allows you to record files from DV and HDV camcorders or webcams. The program comes with a whole host of dedicated tools that let you start or stop the recording process, play, pause, or stop videos, and set the recording time.

But that's not all! The program lets you split clips, go to a specified frame position, set the clip duration and background color, disable audio streams, and add an intro title and ending message. And the built-in special effects? You won't believe your eyes! You can select from a variety of effects such as rotate, zoom out, and diffuse, plus several video effects including fade in or out, mosaic, contrast, blurring options, luminosity, and grayscale.

You can choose from different preset titles to use for your video presentations, create chapter points, pick a theme and background image, and even add audio files from your computer to use as background music (e.g. MP3, WAV, WMA).

Once you've edited your video to perfection, you can burn it on DVD, export it to MPEG, AVI, MP4, AVC, or WMV file format, or even upload it to YouTube (provided you've given details about your account).

All in all, honestech Video Editor provides top-notch video quality and proves to be a lifesaver if you're looking to add that personal touch to your videos. With several preset special effects and transitions, you're sure to be blown away by the final result.
