| 362586 | 2005-06-10 02:27:00 | Which is the best program for capturing digital video off a camcorder direct to mpg2? Are there any free programs? I don't need to edit, just capture. TIA |

| 362587 | 2005-06-10 02:32:00 | XP has MovieMaker(2) built in which does a pretty good job. If your not on XP then you could try Virtual Dub. Personally I would suggest capturing as DV and encoding down..... |

| 362588 | 2005-06-10 07:10:00 | Thanks. Does Movie maker capture to mpeg2? I've been capturing to DV and then encoding, but for some reason MM stops capturing within a few minutes, and anyway I don't have enough space to capture the hour-long video to AVI |

| 362589 | 2005-06-10 07:49:00 | I think MM captures as WMV . BUT u could use Nerovision, now called Nero Digital, to capture whatever or once MM captures the video, Nerovision once u burn it to a DVD, it'll convert it on the fly . Only thing is, u may need the plugin for Nerovision, as it isnt free . |

| 362590 | 2005-06-10 09:55:00 | If its just for a capture you could download Ulead Video Studio or Pinnicle Studio 30 day trial versions. Very easy to use but if your looking at doing a lot of captures then i'd go with virtual Dub or Virtual Dub Mod. An amazing piece of free software that can do alot of editing tasks as well if needed. | lazydog (148) | ||
| 362591 | 2005-06-10 21:30:00 | Good ideas folks. I'll check them out. Guess the next question is... what can record via a microphone direct to mp3? |

| 362592 | 2005-06-11 03:32:00 | Virtual dub :D | lazydog (148) | ||
| 362593 | 2005-06-11 05:16:00 | Anything Virtual Dub can't do? :) Thanks, I'll try it. |
