Video Editing Program

I'm seriously close to giving up. I haven't found a free progam that will do what I want. Oh, well.

Hi Spottedfeather
Have just sent you a PM. I think I have solved the problem.

What exactly can you not do? - e.g. with WLMM

You guys made me curious about Videodub. Could someone give a short summary why one would want to use it rather than e.g. WMM or WLMM. I use those or Machete which is a lossless editor that is extremely fast. One thing I noticed about Videodub is that it seems to support only a few codecs - but maybe I read that wrong. And it definitely does not have malware. The largest German computer mag Chip distributes it - and those guys check all programs out thoroughly before they release them.

Once I have done some video enhancements using virtualdub, though those were .avi files. And there is another tool (paid) that can do the same thing faster. It is Video Enhancer 1.9.3 Free trial - Video quality enhancement tool .

Virtualdub has spyware and adware.

spottedfeather, you have to be joking (or an idiot) when you say virtualdub is spyware. i have been using that program for the last six years, and i challenge you to back up your ridiculous claims with some proof. Virtualdub is one of the most complete and versatile video editing programs that i have ever used. What a stupid thing to say.

EDIT: I would be more than happy to show you how to use virtualdub if the problem is that you are not sure how to use it.

And I am not sure how to find a spyware or adware there

As I said earlier I think I have solved Spottedfeather's problem. I have just sent him the Folders for a DVD and I hope to put the answer up on the Forum shortly.
Just to add my two pennyworth to the ongoing discussion about Virtual Hub. The OP seems to be convinced that it carries something malicious so he is never going to be confident using it. In the UK we a have a thing called "S***s" law which means that if he did use it malware or spyware would undoubtedly descend upon him from a great height so it is probably best if he steers clear of it! (IMHO, that is)

Well done, John !! Nice work as usual

I finally got the files not corrupt, but I don't have any blank dvds to test the file out.

Well I can't help there, I'm afraid. It hardly seems worth while to post a DVD to you from the UK. All I can do is to say that if you can find a blank DVD (they cost less that 30 cents in the US I believe) I'm prepared to quarantee that there is no hissing in the background of the video. The speech is remarkably clear given that this was an original old film, converted to a VHS tape and then captured to a digital format, then rendered to a DVD.
Again I would ask, are you happy for me to quote my findings here on the open Forum?
