What editing software (MAC & PC) are you using with your HV20?

[littlebuggy]

I've been screwing around with a trial version of PE4, but am having problems with very unstable HDV capture, sooooo..... I was wondering what software some of you are using to capture and edit HD footage... Hopefully I can get some ideas from you guys pertaining to newly released, or still available software.

Thanks in advance.

I capture with HDVSplit, and edit with Premiere Pro

Capture & Edit --> Sony Vegas 7.0e

24p Pulldown Removal --> TMPGEnc 4.0 XPress

Well im a total newbie, so you probably should not listen to me! But I'm using Adobe PE 4.0 for editing and HDVsplit for capturing.. I dont know why you get errors when capturing with PE4, I works just fine for me. But I prefer to use HDVsplit for capturing, it gives me more freedom.

Why dont you try HDVsplit for capturing too?

Have a guess

Vegas Pro 8 with HDVSplit.

Vegas all the way. So simple to use, no steep learning curve. It delivers exactly what it promises.

I use HDVsplit for capturing (free download)
I now use AVIsynth for transcoding m2t to avi (also a free download)
I use VirtualDub for pulldown removal (also a free download)
I use Blender 3D for its built-in NLE, node editor, title effects, (also a free download)
For DVD burning, I've been using Roxio's MyDVD basic (came with my Vista, and yes, the software is horribly limited when it comes to menu features, but does a great job burning it to DVD and playback from DVD is excellent)

Hmm interesting, I never looked close enough at Blender to notice the NLE. I'm happy with premiere of course, but it might be worth another look at blender.

whatever works

Studio 11.1.1 to do everything. BUT nothing is an exact science

Vegas Pro 8 - just superb - I love it!

It's pretty good, I love using its NLE mainly for its simplicity. I can use it in conjunction with my 3D scene to make 3D title effects, green screen compositing with the node editor, all the filters I can make myself with its node editor. I originally intended to use Blender with 3D animation, but lately, I've been using it for video editing purposes lol. :P

Capture everything with HDV Split. I'm playing around with Ulead VideoStudio 11+, and will probably try Pinnacle Studio 11+.

Q: Why would you use HDVSplit instead of Vegas for capture - excuse the noob Q please

I assume it's because HDVSplit splits up all your footage seperately where Vegas might not.

That's why I use it instead of capturing with Premiere.. especially when shooting 24p so pulldown removal is done correctly.

i have a few questions, always need to record movies using Film to get the best quality?
I record using the MiniDV, so i cant use HDV Split, wich soft recommend me to copy the movies from minidv to my PC and get the best quality?

[darosk]

Capture and edit on FCP6.

[Goose]

no vegas can capture with scene detection. I use it without much problem

[samsagaz]

I dont have an Apple, Final Cut is just for apple, right?

With Adobe Premiere im getting low quality, dont know why.
