Optional trim
Camera recordings can remove long silent stretches locally.
Overlay controls
Hide the VidDM watermark or DM avatars before recording.
I built VidDM because typing is not always the fastest way to explain something. Sometimes a 20-second camera or screen recording is clearer, warmer, and easier.- Phil Starkovich
