Hi All, I am trying to cut the final thread requiring me to have a Windows partition - video editing. I know this topic was "done" about a year or so ago but I was wondering if anyone has any perls of wisdom.
Right now, I need a software MPEG1/2 encoder. I have a bunch on AVI files that need compressing to MPEG2 then they'll get burned onto (S)VCD for archiving. Yes I know MPEG1/2/4 is a lossy format - that's OK as long as the encoding is clean. Anyone know of a Linux equivalent to "tmpeg" etc?? I'm not too concerned about capture at the moment - I have a digital video camera and supported IEEE1394 card, so that should cover it (never tried it though). Once I get the raw video on my system though, I'd like to do some basic editing; transitions (fade to/from black at least!), sub-titles, inserting backing music etc. Then I want encode the whole shebang into MPEG2 ready to burn onto a (S)VCD. Any ideas/URL's??
