VideoSpin is simply a more advanced alternative to Windows Movie Maker and it was almost a perfect solution for me but it does not provide features 3 to 5 without the codec pack you have to pay $15 for.
Now, as you can see I don't want to compete with Hollywood.
Split-views (like in Frazer's demo) highly desirable Has some basic set of filters (greyscale, old movie, color correction) Inserting PNG graphics (I can create it myself) as an overlay (pointers, arrows etc.)
Or at least a lossless output in HuffYUV or similar codec so I will be able to compress in an external application without quality loss.ĭespite possibly available HD 720p - a control over the output video bit rateīasic sound track replacement (I can do the rest in Audacity if I have to)
Usage of any codec installed on my system (x264 and DivX at least) within the most popular containers (avi, mp4 at least). Minimum preview capabilities of the outputĬustom fitting of video materiall in different ratio than video frame (black bars, cutting, stretching) After 10 exports you'll still get the same quality. A video manipulated in dsc mode does not degrade. In this mode you can cut out a portion of a video in VirtualDub and it won't even ask you about output format because the format will be exactly the same as input format (stream). In dsc mode an editor does not modify any frame, even by a pixel. If you don't understand what re-compression is, you won't be able to tell whether particular editor has dsc mode or not :) It allows for basic editing of a video (cutting, rearranging, removing parts of it etc.) without video re-compression*. Direct stream copy mode is a feature of e.g. Re our previous discussion about direct stream copy mode - no, this video doesn't present whether the editor features or does not feature direct stream copy mode. Indeed it seems it meets all of the requirements I specified. I'm on linux now but a very good recommendation non the less. I'm not part of the company, but I wanted to help you, that's all. Those are screens from MoviePlusX5 straight from my laptop. If you don't get it for that price, and go after vague-ass, you're a big choo choo!!!

My recent vids were made with it.Ģ- Custom frame size - Check. Available from either DVD menu or render all tracks on file.
