VideoDirector is a great program. It is great for simple cuts editing of
your home movies and creating a database of clips for future reference. It
allows genlocking of graphics over your video clips. That is about the
extent of it's features. It is easy to use and I like the interface.
Mediaphile is capable of much more than VidDir. but for me has a pretty
steep learning curve. With it, however, you can incorporate animations
into the Edit Decision list, use Arexx scripts, control the Toaster
(though I haven't gotten to this yet) It is quite complex and requires
scripting commands to achieve most of this. Of course the price, depending
on your equipment, can be as little as approx. $200.00. I am still not in
love with it but cannot justify AmiLink CIP at $1795 yet. So I trudge on
with the scripting and manual.
Take care sorry I've been away from the 'Puter for a few weeks.
