Any one got an opinion re the Panasonic NV-GS150EB? Seems to get Ok reviews. Are there real advantages with 3ccd at this price (circa £500)? Are there better with 1ccd for the same price?

What are the benefits of AVI DV over MPEG-2, if any? I am looking for a new camcorder and see that MPEG-2 format recordings are creeping in. Is there any particular reason? How about editing? Are there any practical differences in the two? Thanks. DG

Hi all, I have been trying to turn my MiniDV home videos into DVDs but it takes many hours to encode the MPEG for the DVD on my AMD Athlon XP 2700+ with 512MB RAM and 7200RPM hard disk, using Ulead VideoStudio. It seems to take even longer to convert MPEG2 (captured from my digital TV card) into MPEG2 suitable for DVD. I'm guessing CPU is the main problem and there aren't many faster CPU...

I know most new DVD players will play most anything, but it there a more compatible media (DVD+R or DVD-R) for the older players?

Any software that will do the above (see subject line) ??

Hi all. Can anyone tell me what I need to transfer video from this camcorder to my hard disk and (hopefully) from there to a DVD? In terms of hardware, software, cables, ports, etc etc? I have read (am reading) the instruction book but it isnt as clear as I'd like and I thought I'd see if anyone could help me in plain English. Thanks. Nat

Not sure if this is the best or right newsgroup for this, but as I have looked elsewhere and found nothing,here's hoping.

I would be extremely greatful if anyone could provide...

Hi, I am producing a DVD for a colleague. It will include a photoslideshow (motion pictures and background music), individual photos (to be used like an old fashioned projector show) and a number of video clips. Using Encore, ProShow Gold and Photoshop, I have successfully created the menus and all the picture elements of the project and am now starting work on the video elements. I though...

I've had pretty good success using Camtasia to accomplish this, but still certain video clips come out all black. I've tried disabling the hardware accelerator but that didn't help any. Is there a better program which will record ALL videos, or is there something else I can try which will work? Thanks in advance!! Lynn

Hello Group - I hope this is not too far off topic. I am having some building work done on my house and will be replacing skirting boards, as such I have a great opportunity to hide cables (network and tv). I want to have a mini hub style thing somewhere out of the way and have everything running into that so that I can then break the tv signal out into different rooms (and use a device to...

Would anybody here have any idea what is wrong with a friends samsung vp-d80 cam? When power up or during use, the camera display appears very blurred with horizontal black/white lines. It appears not to be sensing picture correctly then is ok for a while? Thanks for any tips.

In time that is, for video recording? -- Alan Reply to alan (dot) holmes27 (at) virgin (dot) net

I have searched various groups and not really found an answer on whether to shoot and edit in 16:9 or not. I have a DV camcorder that has the ability to record in 16:9, 'Cinema' and 4:3 aspect ratios. (Panasonic NVGS150), ignoring whether this is the best camcorder or not, which is the best mode to shoot and edit in. I can handle wide-screen in edit (FCP4.5HD) and DVD Production (DVD Studio...

I have seen this model at £339 and free delivery in the uk and am thinking to upgrade from my old Sony Dv dsr-100e which has no viewfinder, Would I see a remarkable jump in picture quality?
