I'm not a computer guru: I'm a 45 y.o. classical musician. be gentle.
I took to Youtube, and have films on and off the site. The quality
is generally bad, despite having a pretty good Sony Handycam 400,
MiniDVD (I now know DV is better for editing, but I needed an external
mic option).
I bought Roxio 10 over a year ago: it is largely a trashy program
for editing. makes sloppy mistakes, and is rough with the Sony
miniDVDs.
So I turned to Windows Movie Maker. A decent program, for a free
one. But the results are all trash - no matter how you render it.
Until now. I searched YT for ideas, and people are adding post-fixes
on the film urls to make them higher quality. ex.gratis: &fmt=18
And another maker said H.264 (or X264) was the best, above divX or
XVid - and his video proved it. (DerekforPresident) on YT.
I tried to download the file: I did what he said. My computer would
not let me drag the X 264 file into my configuration area in the
VirtualXDubMod.
I use Vista SP1, and my wmm version says it is 6.0.6000.16386.
My notebook is an HP, 4GB/250. Brand new.
I wonder if I need to remove my WMM altogether, and replace it.
I don't see how to get the x264 codec integrated into my wmm.
has anyone any witty advice?
thanks.
