I use Pinnacle Studio DV ver. 7.0 The system was cheaper than most, only about $200 andit came with the capture card. It does all the things I need it to do for AMV making and produces great quality. The negative aspect is taht I can't do anything fancy with it, I can't even overlay clips without messing with "fade to" transitions for about half an hour and even then it's nto the same. Even still, it's a great program taht does what I need.

Costs $0, and you can do all sorts of things that are usually reserved for the big boys of video editing and compositing.

Used to use my beloved WMM and do fun editing. :lol: Now I use Premiere 6.0 and do stressful, time consuming work. :shock:

I mostly use premiere but have started playing around with VegasVideo. It's got a bastardly UI, but it's also got some neat functions that are really practical (like MPEG-2 input and decent realtime previewing without an RT card...and asskicking MPEG export)

I have tried premiere and pinnacle studio, and i think that Ulead offers the best bang for the buck. It seems to give me a little more control and flexibility. And it does not freeze as often. 8)

Windows Movie Maker for want of something better

Postby axron27 » Tue Oct 29, 2002 12:35 pm

this not a recommendation it's a sad fact. like all microsoft creative products, it's meant for armchair enthusiuasts and is weak in special features. for instance, i like to have sound from the actual clips i'm producing my videos from at the front and back of same but the audio and video volume controls are set as on a balance bar, so if you don't want your clips own audio interfereing at least 90% or more of the volume has to be set favoring the added music clip which means that the beginning and end sequences are going to be much lower in volume than the body of the video. plus the begin and end point clip functions often ignore the user's settings and the whole clip appears anyway. windows movie maker does not manage memory well and tends to crash.

What video editor do you use?

Postby Bluebottle » Wed Nov 13, 2002 3:30 pm

So far, I've managed with VirtualDub on its own. And I know it's not meant to be used to put together clips from different files (it's told me that many, many times), but if you (a) don't mind doing linear editing, (b) don't have Windows Movie Maker and (c) want something free, it might work for you. Lots of filters available to help you, as well - Logoaway in particular has come in useful on my latest project.

You can't really do anything more complicated than cuts from clip to clip, though. I might someday try to find out how to do fades, but it's probably more trouble than it's worth...

Ah well. Perhaps I'm just a masochist. ^_^
