Real-time video editing is a system of editing video where it takes no longer to render a video than the length of that video clip itself. For example, after a 30 minute length of video is edited it needs to be rendered, and should the system take more than 30 minutes to render the clip it is not a real-time system. Put another way, using a real-time system, you can immediately preview your video editing work, at full quality, without any rendering delay.
