Video Editing
For those who use the GoPro, what video editing program do you use? I have used Windows Video Maker and I have to convert the videos using AVS Video Converter to a usable format..I have a 20 minute video I need to convert from yesterday and it will take 8 hours to complete.......way too long.....I'm hoping there is a video editing program that you can use without needing to convert the file and have better editing options than Windows Movie Maker.....
Has any one used this program? http://www.amazon.com/Sony-Creative-...dp_ob_title_sw Thanks in advance

I use Sony Vegas... But it cost an arm and leg and is probably old now... ha ha But I have yet to find another program that can do what it does...
A good one is cyberlink Power Producer... Make videos like this in 20 minutes or less. http://www.myspace.com/video/ryanrwa...wells/53951770 |

Compression
Quote:
It would save a lot of time if you compress the file and then convert it. Let me know if you need some help with that. There are several compression programs you can use depending on if you are using a PC or MAC. |

One more tip
Quote:
If you do not want to compromise quality then you should probably use Sorenson, or CCE to compress your video. Final Cut Pro, which I use to edit, uses Sorenson and it should not take 8 hours (thats crazy!) You can also use a program called DVD Shrink which would save you a little time and still have good quality. I have never heard of the editing SW in the link you sent, but other than final cut pro, some other programs are: Vegas Video (PC) I movie (for mac) |

Final Cut pro. Is the best. But if you have a Mac. It comes with I Movie. It is really easy to use.

I also have the gopro hd, and I can't edit it worth a crap. My computer won't even play them back. I have to view them on my HD tv. It sucks because every video camera from the flip to the sony home camers comes with editing software on a cd or programed into the camera itself.
