As some of you may have read, THAXFA has sent me a VHS video of a German documentary about Aphex Twin.
I have used my VCR player, TV card and computer to rip the contents of this documentary to my pc.
The trouble I now have is that I only have Windows Movie Maker 2 to edit the footage. Microsoft being Microsoft have decided that their file format is much better then any other and will only allow me to save the files in .wmv formatt.
This is fine until I come to make the DVD only to find that the dvd burning software I am using can not read .wmv files.
I have no software to convert the format so is there anyone here that can help me locate a free program that will either convert the .wmv to .avi/.mpg or that can receive a signal from a video capture device. Thanks in advance.
P.S I have made a VCD in Nero 5 using the .WMV files but I need a key to unlock the dvd burning capabilities...

yes but I still need to edit and cut up the video into songs, biography etc. The TV card will let you record with its own software but there is no editing software with it. So when I come to save I need to be able to save as .avi or .mpg.

no. but the way I see it, if you don't make money on what you make with the program, you shouldn't have to pay for it. It IS after all a professional program, and you are not a professional who are going to use it for professional reasons.

so how does that help me? I am not going to make money on the finished product but that doesn't mean adobe will see it your way and give it to me for free does it?

download the cracked version of kazaa.
if you become a professional, or you make money of it, use the money to pay adobe.

does anyone know how to make divx's into dvds? I've been trying to get Chobits on to DVD so that I may watch it on the tv for a while, but the picture goes all pixely-beyond-recognition.
It is not actually I who have been trying, it is a friend of mine with a mac, so if anyone knows how, help is appreciated.

this friend of yours with a mac......are they using the DiVX in .avi format, or are they converting it to .mov before they put it to DVD?
i only ask because QuickTime has a problem decoding .avi files that have been encoded with DiVX......i have a converter utility if you want me to email it to you?
