I've go a Hitachi DVD HDD camcorder here - it belongs to our morris dance
group, and as I'm supposed to be the most technically knowledgeable person
it's up to me to learn how to use it.
I've videoed several things, and saved them to my PC. They're in mpg format.
So far so good. I can play them back, on a variety of players. But when I
try to edit them, using the simple basic, supposedly foolproof Windows
Moviemaker, the program freezes up.
I can edit avi files off my own camera perfectly well. I can even edit other
people's mpg files. But for some reason my own mpegs don't work. I can't
figure out what's wrong.
Any suggestions would be very welcome. I don't want to do anything
complicated! Just (a) compress them for YouTube or (b) add titles, or (c)
chop bits off them. Is there any other software - preferably free - that
might work better, or can you suggest what might be going on?
All I can think of is that there might be some way of making a video clip
uneditable, so that other people can't change them, and I've somehow,
accidentally, caused this to happen with mine. Is this a possibility and if
so, how would I change it?
Thanks.
