I'm knocking together a short Matrix style dvd of my kids (7&4) for their school, I was wondering if anyone knows of a royalty free web resource for video effects (explosions - gun flare etc...) that I could use as effects in the movie ? Cheers j'arrow

How can I copy a film in my digital camcorder to a DVD? Do I have to go through transferring the film to the computer, use Adobe Premiere (or Pinnacle) and then export the film to the DVD burner or can I somehow go directly from camera to DVD? Thanks for any help Fadel

I am capturing from and analogue signal and want to get the best possible quality. I am converting old VHS tapes to DVD. I believe that uncompressed AVI is the way to go, but the files are HUGE. I have 80Gb available , but this isn't nearly enough for a few hours. What other formats give good results but are not so memory hungry?

I am having troubel with Sony's software, when I view the tape via usb from my PC105E it will only fill a small section of the monitor screen. Any clues on how to increase the screen size, presently it is hardly worth watching.

I'm after my first miniDV camcorder, and its seems everybody recommends the Sony TRV33 for my budget (about the £500 mark). Looking on Jessops and a few other websites it looks like this has been replaced by a 2004 model. Can anyone tell me which is the equivalent in the new range? I know I can still get the TRV33 online, but I thought I should look at the new version first...unless anyone...

Hi All, I've been recommended to look at this camcoder - Sony TRV950. I liked this phrase. http://www.camcorderinfo.com/content/sony_dcrtrv950_camcorder_review.htm "MPEG Recording / USB Streaming You can also record MPEG videos to the Memory Stick, in either 320 x 240

At the low end they suggest the following MiniDV (the prices shown are what they listed, but many can be bought cheaper). Sony DCR TRV33 (£750) Recently bought for 480 from pcrdirect if anyone is interested. gbnews

This program will send the signal that starts your camera recording. It's difficult to imagine why you would WANT to instigate recording unless connected to such a program :-)
