Video Editing Made Hard

I spent most of the day doing some work on my video from yesterday. I put it to music, but I am trying to save it in a format that looks good when it is played. Most of the compression modes I have used so far cause some issues of distortion or poor picture quality. So on my second attempt my computer froze. The project wasn’t saved, because I didn’t spend much time editing video. But the time I spent choosing music and setting it was lost. But because I actually had one video made I had the track. So I just had to take the single track and post it to the video again. Not too bad.

But each time I tried to do a new video output it sucked. It usually takes about two hours to render the video, so it was a slow process to find out the video was going to suck.

I found one I thought might work and I posted it on a DVD that is playable in a DVD player for a TV. But then the program for saving it to the DVD wanted to render stuff. There goes about forty minutes. Finally my computer spits out a DVD. I play it on my TV downstairs, and it look horrible. I was unwilling to let that copy go.

Finally I decide to burn my very first video that I saved. Hmmm. Turned out it looked great on a DVD. Great. A day flushed down the toilet. Well it is done now.
