Hi, is it possible to set up premiere pro, (maybe coupled wih my video or other drivers) to output the monitor window to another output on my raphics card, be it s video, dvi or rgb? or will i need extra hardware?

Hi, I have recently started dabbling with making video cds. I have not had a very good experience, but I've got a few to work, but am left with a weird problem. I am trying to make video cds to play in a personal-cd type player I have bought, that also plays video cds. It seems that if I use my VCD creation program (Honestech VCD Maker)

Have been looking through a few tutorials for the above and being a relative noob was astonished by the amount of software and trouble needed just to do this. Can anyone recommend the best and simplest way to do so if there is one? I've got the dv editing software and the burning software sorted just this bit in the middle Ive no experience. I apologize for my naivety, I know most people are...

I was wondering of someone could help me with a problem I'm having with the advc100. I wish to put a old NTSC video to my hard drive for later burning to DVD. I use a Panasonic NV-HS830 which plays NTSC on Pal Tv, I know there isn't a problem with this video recorder as I can easy watch my NTSC video on my tv. I am using Wincreator and have tried Power Producer. I have tried to adjust the dip...

Hi I want to make a silly little movie for my nephew and niece where I'm going to shrink them down to miniature size in their own house. I'll therefore need to create a small green screen sound stage. The budget for this is practically zero - as it's only a bit of fun for the kids - so should I expect reasonable results if I buy a roll of the purest green fabric I can find, or should I abandon...

I've tried a Google Groups search but I haven't unearthed anything useful (maybe using the wrong search phrases...) Is there a significant (or any) performance gain using Premiere 6.5 on a PC with an Intel Pentium 4 with hyperthreading technology? Jake

Before Christmas we were talking about microphones. I've been playing with a Rode NT4. A pair of condenser capsules, permanently mounted as an X-Y pair. Street price around £240 inc VAT. This is a real workhorse! It works on 48v phantom power or an internal 9v battery. Two cables are provided, one with two XLR plugs for connection to professional equipment, one with 1/8inch stereo jack plug...

I'm considering buying a digital camcorder but I haven't much of a clue about the technology. Can these DV tapes be copied to DVD discs? Anybody recommend a reasonably priced camcorder? What are the most reliable brands - JVC or Sony or what? Many thanks Melanie

Borrowed one of these over the weekend, and really struggled to get it to work. Running XP, the computer didn't recognise when the ADVC was turned on, nor would XP pick it up if I rebooted the PC and left the device on. I think I got it to do DV-A twice, but not in a repeatable manner. I couldn't get A-DV working at all. My mate said it's been kicking around his work for a while so...

I have a Digital-8 camera. I would like to create DVD videos. The camera (sony trv250) doesn't have a very high resolution. When capturing, the AVI files seem to come automatically in 640 x 480. If I use a video editor and save them as 720 x 480 will they lose some quality or will they become stretched? I also don't understand how they come in at 640 x 480. The resolution described by the...

Have a new notebook P4 3.0 GHz / 512 Mb DDR RAM / 60 Gb HDD / onboard Radeon AGP video card. I wish to do some low end video capture. The unit does have a 1394 port. However the HDD is only 4200RPM.

Hi there, I am sorry if this has been aired a million times. I was just wondering if there was any chance that my laptop would be suitable for basic video editing. I have a sony VX2000E and want to make short 10 minutes max surf DVDs. My laptop is 450MHZ, 128MB RAM, 6 GB hard drive free, Firewire connector, standard 4mb graphics card, win 98 and DVD writer.

I talking vacation trips , daughters wedding etc. I can burn it to a cd but it only works in the pc. I have firewire, what else can i do?

Aldi currently have an £80 DVD burner on their counters. It does DVD-R as well as DVD+R. -- Tony Morgan http://www.camcord.info http://www.rhylonline.com

I use Pinnacle Studio 8 for editing, and have a freecom dvd burner which came with Roxio easy CD/DVD software - but I keep getting errors when I try to burn DVDs. I want to store several movies on one disc - I'm not bothered about menus and stuff - what's the best software? I can't get Roxio to work properly at all. Also - I bought some cheap DVD-Rs from Dabs - could they be the...

Hello: Has anyone in UK have a chance to try out this new Sony VCT-1170RM tripod yet? I like it light weight with the remote controller ready. I'm from USA and this tripod doesn't exist in USA yet. If I really want it, I'll have to order it from either UK or Singapore. It's a lot more expensive in UK though. I am thinking of ordering it from a place in Singapore for USD460.00 after...

I've just taken digital video footage of a wedding service from a camcorder mounted on a tripod (I was a the father of the groom and obliged to stay in my appointed seat). The lack of variation in view makes it boring to watch. Do any of you know of any any editing software available that will allow me to do the equivalent of zoom in and out (and after zooming pan) to add interest to the shots? I...

I want to write a few short home movies onto DVD- I understand that Pinnicle 8 can be used to capture, edit and burn DVD's.. any one any experiences with it? What is the actual package called and how much would it cost in the UK? GD
