Frage von IndoorJo:Hi,
I have been a few weeks a Panasonic camcorder and while the GS-320. Four weeks holiday in America that I was now about four hours brought the raw material. This is located on three tapes.
Today I have my Firewire interface card installed and the camera has been synonymous of system (with the latest WinXP Home SP2) detected. So far, so good.
Now I have problems with the enclosed software (MotionDV Studio 5.6E LE or Sweet Movie Life 1.0E):
MotionDV Studio 5.6E LE: The first tape was read by Assistant and the individual sequences were created. So I could now (less comfortable) or delete individual sequences shorter.
The second tape but then I had already problems. Constantly broke sometime, never at the same time, the recording from. The presented situation is that the small preview window only blue was nothing more s.PC speakers heard, but the camera happened next. Since then only a Cancel was possible, were already on the hard drive data on synonymous played again disappeared.
Further attempts to synonymous after rebooting the computer, brought no more success. Not even with another tape recorded.
I noticed also, that the start of the program and the wizard is always more time was ...
Sweet Movie Life 1.0E: Here the work of the second recording tapes, but there were only two (why two?) Avi files created from which I am the individual sequences can not be filtered out. An after editing (eg with MotionDV Studio 5.6E LE) is obviously more difficult. So I can with the program not so much use to us. Reading can be so synonymous have Windows Movie Maker or NeroVision Express.
What am I doing wrong possibly? Meanwhile I am so frustrated that I have the whole stuff again s.liebsten would sell! Are the two included software really that bad? What are your experiences?
S.Rande Another question: If I get some time to an edited AVI movie came to be, then I convert to MPEG2, in order to create a DVD? On such matters, unfortunately the manual does not synonymous. Here in the forum will often already answered, sorry ...
Antwort von Markus:
Are the two included software really that bad? It is not customary, camcorders video editing programs mitzugeben who are really great. If you want to do more than just a blurred scene herauszuschneiden, then you prefer to search for better software. Avid there's even a free tool: Avid FreeDV. For the first steps should already be sufficient.
If I then someday become a machined AVI movie came to be, then I convert to MPEG2, in order to create a DVD? That's right. See synonymous:
DV-AVI> MPEG2> Multiplexes> VOB> DVD burn
Antwort von indoorjo:
Markus, thank you first for the answer. With Avid FreeDV I still can not quite friends, but so far only synonymous visits the site. Is the program in the free version of synonymous to MiniDVs single, edit and create a DVD?
Is there - cheap - alternatives?
Other users have similar problems as me (see above)?
Antwort von IndoorJo:
Which Movie Programs else is working well with the Panasonic GS-320 camcorder and are also inexpensive? Some people have similar problems as I have and perhaps the editing software changed? About experience I would be very happy!
Antwort von Markus:
Look under
FireWire FAQ">section 8, what programs are cheap to have. The output as DVD-Video is now standard.
What problems with the individual software packages are known, you will find in the software SlashCAM'schen headings.
