Best Tax Software 2009 Cnet ReviewsBest Tax Software 2009 Cnet TvWindows Movie Maker Windows XP Free download and software reviews. Pros. Astounding simple to use. The interface is perfectly intuitive and the Timeline view enables you to see EXACTLY where to integrate JPEGs, music and videos. I have used Movie Maker XP to create videos as short as one minute to as long as 2 hours and had no freezing or crashing, AS LONG AS I imported JPEGs for graphics,WMVs for videos and WMAs for audio. I especially love that a single JPEG will consume several seconds on the time and can be copypasted within the timeline and that both JPEGs and WMA audio files can be also be trimmed for length or to remove unwanted glitches in the original sound recording. While these features all without a doubt the most valuable for most users, my personal favorite is the ability to overlap images in the timeline, producing dissolves between JPEGs limited only by the length of the shorter duration of the two JPEGs being cross faded. Cons. A minor shortcoming is the lack of a separate audio effects track, which would enable me to playback both sound effects such as waves crashing and music or narration at the same time.

Windows Movie Maker 2 is so easy a child could use itan incredibly patient child born to filmmaker parents who didnt mind restarting this application every few. Another minor shortcoming is the need to use WMA for all imported video to prevent Movie Maker from crashing. I consider both of these minor, because I can easily buy audio mixing software for what I would pay for any other video editing software I have tried and I can get any number of superb video and audio file format converters free from CNET downloads. Movie Maker XP also will not produce an HDTV video which is probably just as well, since I so frequently use low resolution graphics and video downloaded from the Internet. Summary. I frequently use a cross fade from an image into black, producing an effect that makes it appear that the image is crumbling into dust. I have seen this effect used only once in a live action motion picture Seconds, a 1. Rock Hudson and it really is a sight to behold. I have found no other video editing software that is so flexible for titling, transitions and special effects AT ANY PRICE. I recently upgraded my computer to Windows 7 dont ask, but the Movie Maker for Windows 7 no longer has these capabilities and I find it a pain to use, as well. I love Movie Maker XP SO MUCH, I am having my copy of Windows XP re installed on my second hard drive just so I can continue to use Movie Maker XP. By the way, in addition to other limitations of Movie Maker for Windows 7, it must be downloaded, as it is no longer included in the Windows operating system. Even worse, Movie Maker for Windows 7 will NOT open a project created in Windows XP. Reply to this review. Read reply 1Was this review helpful 1. Reply by Private Angel on December 2. XP, and its free. Pros. Simple interface, easy to learn, good starting point for someone whos never edited a video before. Patch For Gta 5 Pc Download. Cons. Freezes, hangs and glitches at every turn not enough user control over audio. Summary. The first time I used the software, it required downloading more software to convert my file to something it could work with. Once I was able to import the file, I didnt have too much trouble learning how to use the software, and except for a few glitches, it worked well enough that I was able to edit a short video without too much trouble. The second time I used it, I was working with an avi file that the software was able to import without converting, but, as mentioned in CNETs review, it kept freezing and required shutting it down every time I added an effect or tried to play the storyboard from any point other than the very beginning. It was an exercise in frustration that turned something that shouldve been quick and simple into a major exercise. Now Im looking for a more reliable editing software. Reply to this review.

DV camera to my PC and this does the trick perfectly. Ive converted dozens of mini. DV tapes Ive made over the years to. I also like how itll display the time and date of each segment in the collections window, and then allow me to delete ones I dont want to keep, and re save that to a file. Cons. For my purposes NONE Summary. Fantastic FREE software included with Windows XP that is a great solution for copying mini. DV discs to PC, works flawlessly Reply to this review.

Its not bad for beginners as it has a quick learning curve but if youre like me and you have been using it for several years, it can actually be very good, provided that you download extra effects and that you know the software pretty well.
