| I was wondering how I make a AMV. I am using windows movie maker but I was wondering how to import my anime that is on DVD's into the program. I think I have to uncode it or something like that, but I don't know how to do that. |

| Can you recommend a site to download from? |

| There are many programs you can get to rip footage from a DVD, and there are different methods you need to use for each program. Depending on the quality you want, you can use either a simple method with a not-so-great result, or a complex one with a potentially crisp and seamless, high quality result. When it comes to making the actual video, using Windows Movie Maker will always reduce the quality of your clips when you export the project. You're better to go for Premiere... PM me for more. |
| I have a good free one, but you have to use another program to convert it into a format which can run in editing programs, and there are problems with DVDs in PAL format; they turn out terrible. If you're in America, you're already at an advantage with AMVs and the like. >_> |
kimochi said: I'm an Adobe Premiere fan. :P All those people using Sony Vegas >_> bah! You can always search for something like "DVD video rip" or something like that to pull up software ideas for ripping. You won't find many good free ones though. = Where can I buy Adobe Premiere and how much does it cost? I didn't realize that Windows Movie was not that good. But... I guess that just means I have to buy a new better program. *hoping it doesn't cost a fortune* ^_^ |

Lirael said: Adobe Premiere costs over £500. It's expensive. I recommend downloading a trial and seeing what you think of it. I managed to download and install two different trails of Premiere Pro 1.5 before I had to get it... So two months of trial. Thats what I did (well, I use Vegas instead), its a great way to get used to the program before you decide to buy it (especially since its so expensive =~. You can slowly go down the version numbers as the trials wear off. |

| Thanks a lot for your help. I think thats what I will do. |
|
| I would like to note that you might find the clips you want to use are compressed with codecs like DivX. NEVER use that codec in Premiere. Premiere hates DivX and it can cause lots of problems. Avoid XviD too. In fact, if you have the space, avoid compressing your .avi files altogether. Just a tip. =] If you have to compress them, use huffyuff (PM me to find out about that) |
