Features

RaceRender enables you to create videos that make use of picture-in-picture overlays, split-screens, camera switching, transparencies, 3D anaglyphs, and many other options. Unlike common video editing software, RaceRender is a video processor that is designed to easily and efficiently mix multiple concurrent video and audio sources. It was originally created to produce fast-paced motorsports video from multiple cameras without requiring expensive video processing hardware, and it has since evolved to become useful for a wide variety of other purposes as well.

Visit the Video Gallery to see videos that it has produced, or download RaceRender for free and try it for yourself.



RaceRender is available in two editions:
  - RaceRender Free provides the main functionality for free, and adds a "RaceRender.com" logo to the corner of the videos it creates.
  - RaceRender Deluxe comes with greatly increased capabilities, at a price significantly lower than most video software or hardware.

* 3D Stereovideo creation requires separate left and right input videos, and may not be compatible with other features.
* Datalogger features depend on data provided by other products. As a result, some features are not functional with all dataloggers, and this is subject to change at any time and without notice.
* The Lap Counter, Lap Timer, and Time Trial Ghost features require the datalogger file to include lap numbers in a compatible format. At this time, those features are only known to be available for Traqmate and RLC Racing.
