It is time now to look at the video editing features. Nero has Nero Vision 4 and Nero Recode 2 for editing.

While importing files

Apart from support for NeroScout (very important indeed), you are not going to see any dramatic changes to the interface from the previous Nero suite. The HDV capturing support and DVD camcorder media (8 cm) support are also welcome.

Nero 7 Premium also has an application for converting video files, Nero Recode 2.

Nero Recode 2: Nero Recode 2 features Nero Digital™, the world’s fastest MPEG-4 encoder, and enables a user to recode non-copy protected movies (DVD-9 - DVD-5) to any CDR/RW, DVD+/-R or a single DVD+R DL disc in DVD-Video format (DVD-9 to DVD-9).

Nero Recode comes to complete the Nero 7 Premium video features

What you can do with Nero Recode2:
If the source DVD is larger than 4,7 GB, Nero Recode 2 can compress the contents so that they fit onto an empty DVD disc without any noticeable loss in quality. Also, you can convert DVD-Video titles that are not copy-protected to the Nero Digital™ format (MPEG-4) and then burn them onto discs. Nero Recode 2 can compile DVD-Video titles (not copy-protected only) onto other media (CD and DVD). If you have DVD-Video titles on separate DVDs and would like to compile your favorite titles onto one DVD, you can use Nero Recode 2 and burn the desired DVD-Video titles onto a single disc. You can burn the compilation onto DVD or CD. Finally, you can convert from 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround into space-saving Nero Digital™ audio format and remove unwanted audio tracks, subtitles or bonus material to gain more space.
