AVI Joiner
Divx Avi Asf Wmv Wma Rm Rmvb Fix Joiner – Download.com. Another utility program. This does fixup of various video files. Good for fragmented downloads. For me, this is most useful for various segments of AVI files that Video Explosion creates. I create one large file and then extract all the audio and then off…

AVI Audio Extractor
Advanced AVI Splitter, AVI Joiner, MP3 Splitter, audio extractor, video frames grabber. Ah there is a tool for everything. In this case, it is a tool that takes an AVI file that VideoFoundry/Video Explosion creates and extracts the audio portion so that I can edit it with a conventional tool like Audigy.

Audio Editing
What is Audacity?. VideoFactory doesn’t come with an audio editor and I need one to take the DV Camcorder audio and stick it onto a CD. Here’s an open source one. One of the highest hits from Google. The other was GoldWave. It uses Lame Encoder to create MPEG files. So, it should well with…

Overview of Video Editting
Video Production. A great web site that explains what products you need to author. I tend to agree with him that VideoFactory is probably the easiest product to edit. I have tried the Ken Burns effects (it’s not that discoverable ;-), but will try them. Has nice “tips and tricks”;http://users.rcn.com/rofrano/Video/Vegas_Tips/vegas_tips.html for Vegas that apply pretty…

Video Explosion
Video Explosion. Been using this product to create a movie. Wow, is it complicated, but the results are great. This editor got a 9/10 from C|Net and it is definitely easier to understand that Ulead. It is licensed actually from “Sonic Foundry”:http://sonicfoundry.com and seems to be a copy of their VideoFactory. This is in turn…

Scanners
What a dilemma on scanners (with printers, it is easy, if splurging and if you want archival quality, then it’s on to the Epson 2200, if it is everyday stuff, the cheaper Canon i950). For scanners, it’s a different story. First there is the question of flatbed vs. dedicated film scanner. For flatbeds, the two…

Printer Reviews
Well, the printer market keeps changing, now it’s time to look for a great photo-printer. Here is what I’ve learned: Hardware Reviews – CNET.com. C|Net unfortunately, doesn’t throw old reviews away. For the reviews that are less than a year old, the winners are: * “Epson 2200”:http://computers.cnet.com/hardware/0-2375165-404-9782487.html?tag=pdtl-list. Lots of folks like this one. 84% positive…
