Recommend me some cheap video editing software .

[Rushy]

I've taken some small HD clips of newborn Phoebe and would like to host them on Vimeo but they only allow one HD upload a week. So what I would like to do its to join the smaller clips together to make one file.

I dont need anything really fancy, yet, and FREE would be best but it needs to run on XP Pro with just 1GB RAM and handle Hi Def .

What do the collective suggest ?

XP comes with Windows Movie Maker. If it's not already on there you can download from here. Not sure if it handles HD though.

Quick time pro it's cheap enough about £50 I think it'll do HD, there's a few others I'll have a look did you not get any software with the camera normally they give you something....

corel video studio is about the best I have used, free 30 day trail i think as well. Only about £60 to buy but very good...

I think there was something in the last update to live messanger that was free and should do what you want.

That'll do the job....it does titles and transitions and effects if you really must use them but it's free and pretty effective.

It will save stuff in high enough definition to be recognised as such by You tube as well

Just remember to save the project frequently as you work on it......like a lot of video progs on a normal PC, it can be slightly prone to crashing (high memory requirements) and losing two hours of work is a pisser

Tried it a couple of times before with some mp4 footage but it seemd to be slow and clunky and would crash regularly which is a pisser whne you've spent a couple of hrs on something

I'll have a look at that because the clips seemed to get save on the PC at Quicktime files . Its a Canon 500D SLR which didnt come with any video software.

I'll check that out too
