Man, my spelling stunk.

Even easier for the "non-picky-i just want to watch my movie-type" is the program "MyDVD which comes with most DVDburners. it's not a highly feature rich program, but will get you off and playing without much hassle. Don't be set back by all the technical information about DVD authoring...

ditto on the name change. Keep in mind that converting, editing, and authoring pieces of someone elses VOB files (aka copying dvd's) is generally not a grand idea. However if you buy an easy to use program like "DVD-Fab" or something, just write the selected content out to a folder as opposed...

Thanks for the thought, cykopat, however I've already unistalled and re-installed the software. I had tried the workspace defaults though... we switch workspaces based on each students preferences, so it wasn't that easy... also the font's size for windows is saved per login name as are other...

yes, two ways... 1. If you don't want to buy any extra plugins then figure out the exact movement desired in the shake and create a motion path with those points (be sure to zoom in a little first to avoid picture drop out on the edges). then after the "shake path" is created add a slight...

not sure of your details, but are you using the right aspect ratio for your source clip. It sounds like you might be having a problem there.

Dude, take five to ten minutes to run through the tape before capturing (firewire i assume) collecting the time code ins and outs for the shots you want. write them down on a piece of paper (logsheet) and a short 2 to 3 word description, then go into your capture and go to batch capture. log in...

creating animations for lowerthirds, etc.. isn't all that hard if you've got the time to learn it. write down or draw out your ideas first or you'll get lost in the options available. start with a specific look for your goal. then determine the graphics which will be needed. for instance, to...

correction: Premier pro does not have time available as keyframeable. I apologize for my error.

prem pro inserts video at is native spect size. Or you could render it as a small vid in black using AE.

check your video card's cloning settings and set theater mode to "on".

Even simpler than that and twice as cool. Use keyframes to adjust the speed in premier pro of after effects. That way you can fiddle with the time in an entirely non-linear fashion. razoring and speed adjusting is now a thing of the past. Have fun.

dude, get After effects and the tricks aren't quite so tricky... However if you don't have access to it then create a photoshop image to your screen ratio and select "all", save selection as alpha channel and deselect. then add a black bar at the top and bottom of the frame and gaussion blur it...

you can achieve this affect in After effects if you have that. The quickest and easiest way to do this with buying an extra plugin is to use photoshop to create a single layer picture of your blood drip as you want it to appear at the start of your animation. save it as a psd and go to after...

It may not be an option for you but Adobe Audition has some great noise reduction filters you can fiddle with. Due to the fact that it's wind there are probably flucuations in the frenquency just as Irsmith mentioned. if you use Audition you'll have a live preview to work with in adjusting...
