Fast, simple video conversion for Windows

Nero Recode is a desktop tool focused on converting and compressing video files across a wide range of formats. With support for device-specific presets and efficient hardware acceleration, it’s well-suited for users looking to optimize videos for phones, tablets, or streaming. Its clean interface and beginner-friendly workflow make it easy to handle basic video tasks without overwhelming complexity.

Streamlined video conversion with device-friendly presets

Nero Recode converts video files into popular formats like MP4, AVI, and HEVC (H.265), offering built-in presets for devices such as smartphones, tablets, and game consoles. Users can fine-tune output settings like resolution and bitrate or use the default profiles for quick results. Basic tools for trimming, cropping, rotating, and adding subtitles are included, making it suitable for quick edits without the complexity of full video editors.

Beginner-friendly workflow with reliable performance

The app’s clean interface and drag-and-drop support simplify the conversion process, guiding users step by step from file import to export. This makes Nero Recode accessible for beginners while still providing enough customization for more advanced users. Hardware acceleration helps speed up conversion on compatible systems, especially with HEVC files. While it doesn’t support encrypted DVDs or Blu-rays, its overall performance is stable and efficient across common formats.

Final thoughts

Nero Recode is a solid choice for users who need a fast and user-friendly way to convert and compress video files. Its built-in device presets, clean interface, and support for hardware acceleration make it especially useful for preparing media for playback or sharing.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
