Hey Guys,

Just returned from a pissup in Aberdeen - had a quality night out and had about a foot of snow too ! Point of this post !! : I took loads of video footage and would love to burn it to disk - by using virtualdub for encoding to play the disk on PC/DVD players, is this possible?

Anyone got any good framesizes and know if its possible to add credits and subtitles etc?

Thanks a million :)

I use Sonic's myDVD, it's basic and came with my Sony DVD +-RW drive. However, you can add avi files to a project and then burn it for use on consumer players, myDVD takes care of the conversion. I have only burnt 640 x 480 avi files from my Canon Ixus, but as these are same size you get from the E200 highest setting I don't see why it shouldn't work.

The clips can be a bit choppy, but that's obviously a limitation of the recording device. Slow steady pans are the key to smooth footage.

For more fully featured DVD authoring tools take a look at the Ulead range, http://www.ulead.com

Cheers mate,

I already have Ulead Movie Maker 3 - a definite improvment on 2. I'll see how it goes for now anyway :)

Cheers !
