For now I&#39;ll stick with Movie Maker until I find one that suites my needs.

It inputs mpg, bmp, and avi&#39;s.</p> <p><a href="http://avidemux.sourceforge.net/">Avidemux</a>, this is mostly used for cropping your videos, but may be useful. Supports way more files than Virtual Dub though. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/6472#post-67218 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 11:56:45 +0000 goodgotd 67218@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>It depends on what your trying to do... oh, my, yes. if you want to do nonlinear editing (that&#39;s what womble mpeg wizard dvd did- full control over what order and timing your video and (separately) audio shows up- well, if you got that.... *use it!*) there are some free- but most with gotchas or heavy learning curves. </p> <p><a href="http://www.freewarefiles.com/Zwei-Stein-Video-Editor-V_program_1760.html">Zwei-Stein Video Editor v3.01</a> is still available.</p> <p>for more to check out, look at the Closed-source freeware part of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_video_editing_software">List of video editing software</a> at wikipedia.</p> <p>dunno where <a href="http://www.freewarefiles.com/VirtualDub_program_14146.html">VirtualDub 1.9.7 Stable </a> fits.</p> <p>if you want to clip commercials or parts of home video that didn&#39;t come out right and then stick the rest together- depending on formats- you&#39;ve got some decent choices that are easy to use- and faster generally since they split and join without re-encoding. and without quality loss.</p> <p>the ones I use most are Easy Video Splitter and Easy Video Joiner from <a href="http://www.doeasier.org/">doeasier.org</a></p> <p>dvdvideosoft has a nice set of freebies, including <a href="http://www.dvdvideosoft.com/products/dvd/Free-Video-Dub.htm">Free Video Dub</a>.</p> <p>also root around places like the <a href="http://www.freewarefiles.com/category_6_74.html">Video Players/Editors</a> section of freewarefiles. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/6472#post-67214 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 06:29:53 +0000 Txnnok 67214@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>It depends on what your trying to do and what type of computer you have. I finally broke down and got cyberlink power director ultra version8. There are tons of reasons for each editor, but I got this cause it runs on cuda. This lets it run on your gpu. I used to have powerdirector 7, which didnt have this feature and it was so slow, even though I am still using a intel I7.<br /> Now with Power8 and and it using my 285gtx along with my I7, this cuda powered program screams.<br /> <blockquote>The first consumer video editing software to be optimized for Intel Core i7, NVIDIA CUDA, and ATI Stream technology, Power-Director delivers up to 5X faster performance for rendering effects and trans coding videos, with vastly improved editing and previewing speeds.<br /> Learn more about faster performance</blockquote><br /> <a href="http://www.cyberlink.com/products/powerdirector/overview_en_US.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.cyberlink.com/products/powerdirector/overview_en_US.html</a></p> <p>Actually anything cuda powered will be faster regardless if your using a 285gtx, just because of how the programing architecture is utilized. Badaboom mediaconverter by nvidia can convert whole movies in about 30 seconds with superb quality using cuda.</p> <p>check it out- hope this helps in your search<br /> ------------------------------------------------------------<br /> oops- sorry its not free<br /> ---EDIT--- </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/6472#post-67208 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 02:37:01 +0000 ⓒⓗⓘⓟ 67208@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Ok, I rarely post on these forums, I just moderate. But I could use some help on something. I usually use Windows Movie Maker for editing videos. That&#39;s ok but the quality isn&#39;t that great. Does anyone know of good, free video editing software? I can&#39;t afford to buy anything and already know of trials. But if you could point me in the direction to some good software for this I&#39;d really appreciate it. Thanks!</p> <p>-Chip </p>
