Hi there.
I'm totally new here, and to be honest I totally suck at most PC and stuff related thingys. The hardest thing I did on mah PC until now was to upload screens from my PC Games.
And yet, this morning I woke up and thought "IMMA DO AN AMV RITE NAO". Or something like that. Well, of course I knew that it would take liek...30 hours of editing and synchronising to make a decent AMV, expecially cuz' it's my first one, I wasn't afraid of that (Have to kill time anyway) but...I didn't expected such horrible amount of technical stuff before even starking da real work.
Honestly, if there were titles floating above peoples and thing's heads in real life like in MMORPG's there certainly would be something liek..."Technical stuff, Bane of Bunkaru".
...anyways, I spent half of mah day reading the stickys and guides in this forum (It was so much of a huge text wall including so much huge technical terms that I've already forgotten half of it, though.) and the other half of it downloading Anime RAWs (I don't have Anime DVD's and I don't wanna buy 'em) from different sources, 'cuz most of 'em got error messages when I tried to open 'em on VirtualDubMod.
...hope I'm not too annoying so far ?
Nevermind, at the time I'm writing this crap I've already achieved to make some clips, to transfer 'em to Windows Movie Maker and to mess around with 'em using special effects and stuff.
But right now I have two huge problems (The first two of many more, I know it.)
1. How do I get rid of the original sound ?
I tried to disable "Sync to audio" in VirtualDubMod before saving teh clips but the original sound is still there when I play 'em on Windows Movie Maker.
2. The video lags as hell...
In a clip of ~10 second I get liek...only 4-5 images. Crap. If I use the double speed effect it's even worse.
What can I do 'bout this ? The clips a compressed as Lagira...Ligara..."looks at the manual" Lagarith Lossless Codec.
Oh, and another issue: I clicked on "Save performance settings" on VirtualDubMod, but when I close the program and reopen it, it's again on the default thingys: "Sync to audio" on and compression at uncompressed.
