I've been making a few movies for the groups, but I"ve ran into a problem. I've been using the Windows movie maker and it only records in Window Media Files. Is there anyway it can be converted to an MPEG? I wanted to get these converted before the next DC meet in 2 weeks. Please help

 

Divx encoders will do that..

i usually use Ulead Video Studio..

check download.com for encoders

 

I have a video of Maxus I did but haven't gotten my burner up and running.

 

lazy biatch .. did you get ULEAD with your video card? i got mine with my ATI...

 

Came with Creative Lab's "Video Blaster" software..

The video is 100% done I just don't want to try and upload 135mgs from a land line... I could only condense the video to 10 mins.

 

their are encoders out there that can cut that down for you.. jeez 10 mins is 135 megs? clee condensed at 10 min to like 20 mb

 

I use MGI VideoWave 4 to capture my video off my camcorder - it came with the Dazzle 80 video capture device that I bought

And I use Adobe Premiere to edit and compress my video.

I used MPEG4 V1 to compress the video. I have no idea what the hell that is, but I found it the best kind of compressor and most people are able to view it.

 

What should I be looking for,then?? Mine is already in the MPEG form so the encoders will reduce the file size to less than 134mgs?

 

check clee's last post

 

try mpegx.com they have all kinds of compression, codecs, and video editors. Hope that helps.

Mine only goes up to MPEG2(whatever the hell that is).. F' dat I'm not buyin' more software!! It'll just be "Maxus the lost videos" as far a I'm concerned.. LOL!!

 

http://www.divx-digest.com also has a ton of stuff.

 

good job

 

enroute.

 

you can do what clee did and use the DiVX 4.0 codec. limit the screen size to something fairly small (352x240 or thereabout). this will yield the best quality vs size. also, be prepared for some serious downtime, as it can take a while to compress.

if you still want to do MPEG (playable in standalone players if in VCD) you can use TMPEG (free!) and make a VCD with Nero Burning Rom (www.ahead.de or www.nero.com)

lemme know if you have any questions, cause i did this for quite a while as a hobby. mostly ripping DVD's though

 

This stuff isn't workin'.. One doesn't do anything once downloaded then the other increase my file size to 207mb. Good Grief!

 

washington DC MAx-can you take the video that is in the files section and convert it into a mpeg? and post it back in the the files section for me?

 

Ok I ate some dinner and took a couple herbs and now I got it compressed.. Now I'm trying to find the perfect mix of video and sound.. Thanks again fellas..

 

In the .org files section or the DC Website?? Email them to me(or give me further details in an email) if you can.

BTW, Sprint I have my first time down BCR on video to well the rated R version #;>) LOL!! I gotta compress that one..LOL!!
