Re: Video's Posted by Duane (from: 4.4.216.244) on January 01, 2001 at 13:14:43: In Reply to: Video's posted by Lara on December 30, 2000 at 23:13:19: : Hi, : We are so new at this that I don't even know for sure if I have come to the right place. We are looking for software that we can take single frames out of video from either a camera or a tape. We also would like information on how to create video presentations to put on CD's. : Any help would be appreciated.. I have been into video for a little while and have found that MGI's VideoWave is a very good little editor for around $89. It will take your home videos and allow you to edit them (take out the annoying little portions that make you look like you don't know what the hell you're doing.) While you are into the editing program you can also find a special moment, like a facial expression, that you can capture into a "still" (a .bmp file) and save to your My Pictures folder...or where ever. If I can help you further, let me know. By the way you will need a digital camera to input clips into Videowave, or, if you have tapes that you made on your Panasonic VHS-C or an 8-mm tape recorder, you will have to feed them into your digital video tape recorder, then into your computer (to Vedeowave). You will also have to have a 1394 Firewire Card (or equivalent to feed the video from camcorder source to computer file. If you're not prepared to spend some money, you must give up the idea. Next, if all you want to do is grab a few photos out of your video tape, there is Snappy and ULead's Lifeview--both of which I have used and will do a good job for you. Either one will cost between $75 and $100 at your local Circuit City or Office Depot--or, if you want, go on-line and buy direct from U-Lead. Lifeview needs a USB connection but little else.
