Hey Guys!!

I have some recent rather noisy run footage which I am trying to edit so I can post up online, But it was captured on a sony mini dvd disc, which I have finalised and it player on my PC but regardless of changing the properties from a *.VOD file to Mpg/Mpeg etc I can not put it into windows movie maker to edit!!!

Any Ideas anyone?

Thanks

There should have been some software that came on a cd with the camera which will let you do basic editing... either that or take a look at the sony site and see if there are any downloads.

It comes up with an error on Windows movie maker...

Here is the error

E:\US pc stuff\My Videos\VIDEO_TS\VTS_01_1.avi could not be imported. An interface has too many methods to fire events from

However it doesn't work with lots of formats from video cameras, well from what I've seen anyway.

I'm pretty sutre I used avi with windows movie maker. Have you tried renaming the long name with the _ _ bits to something just simple?

If you have finalised the disc, you then need to rip the disc so the video becomes an .avi You won't be able to drag and drop the DVD file into windows movie maker.
