Quality Home Video
I do videos only as a hobby. I want to edit Hi-8 video and get near-Hi-8
output. After a few weeks of reading messages in this forum, I have concluded
that it would take too much money ($20,000 for FAST Video Machine or equiv.
plus $10,000 for a new computer with big fast drives) to do this with
non-linear editing.
I have a fantasy… for under $1000 (O.K. — $1500) can I get system which
will control "non-professional" equipment and allow me to edit video clips, add
special transition effects (dissolves, wipes), add title overlays and also edit
the sound? In other words, I want to do computer controlled linear editing,
and utilize my computer (66/486, 1 Gig IDE drive) for special effects.
Any advice is welcome.
