Complete hands-on review of Joyoshare VidiKit, a multi-functional video tool kit that performs a variety of processing functions such as video editor, cutter, screen recorder, and converter from a single platform:
Videos have become an integral part of modern entertainment and commerce. We live in a world that constantly creates and consumes videos regularly. Platforms like YouTube have not only made video content accessible 24/7 but have also given birth to an entire generation of independent creators that produce videos serving a variety of niches at low to no cost of production.
Creators on video-sharing platforms like YouTube have made a name and living for themselves by doing nothing more than producing videos on their computer systems. Of course, the persistent creation and upload of video content wouldn’t have been possible without the many user-friendly video processing software at our disposal today.
Ask any independent creator and they’ll tell you how important the post-production process is when creating videos. Simply shooting and uploading them isn’t enough anymore. You need to make sure your videos are expertly cut, trimmed, and enhanced with suitable audio/visual effects to satiate and attract an audience.

Features
As we mentioned before, Joyoshare VidiKit is a truly multi-functional tool kit that performs several key video processing functions. Let’s look at every single feature this tool offers and find out if it performs them competently.
#1) Video Conversion
Video Conversion using Joyoshare VidiKit is fairly simple. One can upload and convert videos on this tool in three easy steps in a wide range of output formats. The tool can efficiently convert videos in over 150 formats.
To convert videos, follow the process below:
a) Either drag-and-drop the media file you wish to convert directly into the interface or upload a file by clicking on the upload symbol available at the top.
b) At the bottom left side of your screen, select the output format to convert the file. You will be given an option to initiate conversion in High-Speed mode or Encoding Mode.
High-speed mode facilitates conversion with zero loss in quality but allows no customization. Encoding Mode allows you to customize the file format, quality, and codec of the video. The Encoding Mode possesses a slower conversion speed compared to the High-Speed mode.
c) Once the desired adjustments have been made, select ‘Convert’ on the bottom right side of your screen. The converted video will be saved in a path of your choosing on the system.
The conversion process is extremely fast when you opt for the ‘High-Speed Mode’. It took us less than a minute to convert a 3-minute MP4 File to MKV. The tool also facilitates batch conversion as you can upload and initiate the conversion of multiple videos simultaneously.
Powered by an optimized acceleration technology, Joyoshare exhibits a conversion speed that is 60 times faster than most traditional converters available today.
#2) Video Cutter
The Video Cutting technology is adequately advanced. You can cut videos precisely in VidiKit by using the control keys presented to you or by setting temporal intervals. The software gives you the freedom to conveniently select time frames and chops off unwanted sections of your video.
Alternatively, you can precisely trim unwanted portions of your video by setting start and end times manually and can preview the progress of your work in real-time.
The software also exhibits a cutting speed that is considerably faster than most of its contemporaries in the market today.
Another thing that impressed us is its ability to cut videos without affecting or degrading the video’s original quality. We found no issues with our trimmed video, which VidiKit could cut with clean precision.
#3) Video Joiner
Joyoshare VidiKit proves efficient for merging multiple imported video and audio files at an incredible speed without loss in quality. It can merge media files of the same format without re-encoding. If the files are in different formats, then it provides its users with the freedom to set quality, customize parameters and make edits to get the job done.
Merging videos is simple in VidiKit, and there is no limit to how many videos or audio files you can merge at a go. Users also have the liberty to re-arrange the order in which video and audio files can be merged. Further, the files to be merged can be renamed to make the process of combining videos simpler.
#4) Video Compressor
Joyoshare VidiKit allows you to process and compress files to smaller sizes at your convenience. VidiKit offers two modes to compress videos. You can either compress by file size or compress by percentage. The compression process is very simple and can be executed in a few simple steps.
a) Go to the ‘Convert’ section and launch ‘Video Compression’.
b) Now drag-and-drop the file you want to compress. Alternatively, you can click on ‘Add Files’ to upload the file you wish to compress. It will show the video you uploaded on the interface along with information about its resolution, size, and duration.
c) You can manually set the compressed size by either lowering or increasing the percentage of compression. Go to the ‘Output’ section and select the path on the device where you would like to save your compressed video.
d) Once done, simply click on ‘Compress’ mentioned on the lower right-hand side of your screen.
We experienced a compression speed with VidiKit that is much faster than modern contemporary tools of its kind. The software can also compress multiple videos at a time. You can also preview the videos just compressed before saving them on your device.
#5) Screen and Audio Recorder
Joyoshare VidiKit’s screen recording feature makes it an ideal tool for online streamers and content creators that create tutorial videos. The software can capture any activity on your computer on Full Screen in resolutions that go as high as 1080p and 4K. It also records screens at a smoother 60 frames per second with no lag.
Apart from Full-Screen Recording, the tool also allows users to specifically select areas of the screen that they would like to record. You can manually set the width and height or stretch the frame to highlight specific portions of your screen that the tool has permission to record.
You are free to take screenshots of your screen while the recording is going on. You can also add watermarks to your recordings to prevent unauthorized distribution of your recorded content.
The software also allows you to make recordings more compelling by highlighting click movements and hiding or showing your cursor on the screen while the recording is on.
You can also schedule your recording time in advance to create a loop wherein the software automatically starts and stops recording your screen at a pre-set time. You can also preset standard resolution as well before you initiate screen recording.
While recording the audio, you also have the option to choose whether you would like to capture audio from a microphone or directly from the system. Alternatively, you can opt to disable audio recording altogether by clicking on the audio and microphone icons presented to you by the tool.
The software is also impressive in its ability to capture sound as well. VidiKit allows you to record all types of audio, which you can save in multiple audio formats. The software can record online radio, music from games, sound from microphones, and more.
It can be also be used to organize and manage recorded audio files by editing its ID3 tags like the title, album, and other information.
#6) Video Repair
VidiKit exhibits an exceptionally high success rate when it comes to repairing broken, corrupted, or frozen video and audio files. The software supports the repair of video and audio files in over 25 formats. The software can repair multiple videos at the same time, irrespective of what format they are in or what caused the video to become inoperable.
You can repair a broken media file in VidiKit by following the process below:
a) Go to the ‘Repair’ section on VidiKit and launch ‘Video Repair’.
b) Once launched, simply drag-and-drop the files you want to repair, or select the ‘Add’ button on the lower-left corner of your interface to upload files to repair. You can set 3 videos to repair simultaneously by clicking the drop-down menu available on the top right corner of your screen, selecting preferences, choosing the advanced section, and setting the number to initiate parallel tasks.
c) Click on the ‘Repair’ button available on the bottom right side of your screen to initiate the repair process. The repaired video will be saved in the desired path on your device.
The software supports repair for videos recorded from cameras. You can preview the files to check whether the repair was successful before proceeding to save the file.
#7) Remove and Add Watermark
It is very simple to add or remove watermarks from videos and images in Joyoshare VidiKit. The process can be executed in three simple steps.
Add Watermark
a) Go to the ‘Repair’ section and launch ‘Watermark Wizard’. Select ‘Add Watermark to Video’ or ‘Add Watermark to Image’ to add a watermark to your video or image.
b) Next click on ‘Add Watermark Image’ under the ‘Media’ section to import your watermark image. Adjust its size and transparency to optimally apply a watermark to your video or image. You can also manually add text in the form of a watermark. Set the font and adjust size as per your preference.
