The newest Adobe Premiere is great from what my friend says. Only thing that sucks about it is that you need to have some specific type of processor that has SSE2 somethingerather enabled. Mine doesn't even have that option:confused: Which sucks cuz I want to use it so bad.

What else is there to use that is for complicated stuff?

About compression keyframes:
Compression keyframes are different from the keyframes placed in the Premiere Timeline window. Compression keyframes are automatically placed during export at regular intervals in the movie. During compression, they are stored as complete frames. The frames between the keyframes, called intermediate frames, are compared to the previous frame and only the changed data is stored. This process can greatly reduce file size, depending on the spacing of the keyframes. Fewer keyframes and more intermediate frames result in smaller file sizes, but produce lower-quality images and playback. More keyframes and fewer intermediate frames result in significantly larger file sizes, but produce higher-quality images and playback.

This is for Adobe Premiere 6 LE; I'm pretty sure different versions would have different help files. When you export the video there should be a function for editing size/quality/etc

P.S. I was going to send this in a PM Senor, but your inbox is maxed out right now

I use Sony Vegas 6 and I have found it so much better in my opinion that Adobe. This is a personal opinion and have not given Adobe a fair shot as of yet. Another easy program that I use is Ulead VideoStudio 9.

whatever program you use, do not use Pinnacle Studio! horrible bugs, and horrible support. I had to re do everything after spending weeks on it.

CyberLink PowerDirector has some dumb glitches too, which i used after that one. so i would not recommend those two for sure.

Adobe Premiere I'm planning on getting soon, sounds like its the best thing out there. hopefully it is.

I currently use screenblast by Sony, and Adobe Premiere Proffesional (had a friend give it to me :biggrin:). If you are just starting, I'd get down the basics with windows movie maker (my friend and I used this a lot before we got screenblast and premiere). The only main henderance is that the finished video quality is only as good as USB capturing. With programs such as screenblast and about any you pay for, you can use firewire, which is exceptional quality compared to USB. Once you feel ready to take the next step to a program that you have to pay for is a great day! Generall they have some nice effects, and transitions. With several Audio tracks (Another limitation with Windows Movie Maker), along with video and text overlays. The site my friends and I made is of our videos, we used the editors listed above, if you'd like to see what you can do with the editing programs you can check it out. It's at http://www.intotheotherside.tk . I hope you found this useful, If you have any questions, feel free to ask! I'd love to help another filmmaker!

I use Windows Movie Maker. I am starting to love editing videos, however, Windows Movie Maker doesn't cut it for me. I need to look for another one. Though I don't have money so in the meantime I am looking for free ones, though I will look into the ones mentioned here.

I edited this video that I finished today with Windows Movie Maker: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33CYj-lzRKM
