Anyone edit video's?

Postby nickp17 » March 12th, 2008, 1:50 pm

I need a decent free program.

Windows movie maker is started to make me throw fits. It crashes so often. I'm to the point I couldn't care less if its better than movie maker, just more stable.

Thanks guys!

I've found WMM to be pretty reliable, but I wouldn't mind knowing a better one myself.

What version of Movie Maker are you using at the moment, Nick?

WMM sucks, if only because you can't do much of anything in it. I personally don't use a free editor, but I've heard Wax is a good one and can do many effects.

I use a $50 program called MAGIX Movie Edit Pro, and I love it.

Seems like they put up the price... I was curious, so I downloaded the trial... there are virtually no improvements from version 11, and yet it's $40 more >_>

If I was going to buy anything I think I'd buy Vegas. But I don't think my computer would run it, and I'm not exactly weighed down by money right now either, so I guess WMM it is :(

WMM is fine for simple stuff, the biggest restraint being only one audio track... what are you planning to make anyway?
