Okay, so up to now, I did video editing the caveman way, from one
VCR to another, or from camera to VCR, sometimes via some kind of
interim mixer appliance - which was cool. Complicated, but cool.

So now I got a new PC as a birthday present, and afore-mentioned
Studio 9 plus, and it's amazing to work with.

However, in order to transfer video material from my old analog
JVC camera onto the PC, I have to plug in my new digital Panasonic
camera in FIRST - if I don't, my Studio 9 software doesn't know
what to do. As soon as I plug in the digital camera however,
the little screen up in the right-hand corner lights up with whatever
scene is playing in my analog camera, and everything is fine and
I can go ahead. Same goes for when I want to transfer material
from my VCR to the PC.

And, last but not least, I get "blips" that sound like a snore,
and greenish disturbances in the picture, from time to time - but
only with analog material. Which does tick me off, because the software
is supposed to be equally good for digital AND the old analog stuff.

They used to have "Studio DC 10" which was for both old and new, don't
know what that's called now.

Anyway - no rose without thorns.
