Technology

LoiLo video editing software uses the GPU to accelerate video playback and editing. This allows the software to edit HD videos, like AVCHD format, quickly without having to wait for each individual video to render before editing. [2] The intuitive interface allows the user to navigate the software with relative ease. Instead of the traditional video editing layout, the company has gone with a "game-like" interface where you can graphically arrange your video clips.
