I have an Adaptec AVC-2310 capture device which captures and works fine within the confines of Sonic My DVD. I was able to import my mpeg files into MM2, edited just fine & saved AVI files until suddenly MM2 crashed my computer & I had to format & reinstall my HD. Now MM2 imports my mpeg files & I can preview them but there is no video (just sound). And now when I click on the clip I get an ActiveMovie Window I never did before. I cannot capture using MM2 (it gives me a runtime error) & I cannot capture using Nero 6 Ultra (tells me capture device is in use). I have read until I am blue in the face. I downloaded a trial version of OSS Converter to convert the mpeg to AVI so I can import into MM2 but review says it is spyware. MM2 is the only non-linear editing software I can find. My system is a Dell Pentium III 667 Mhz, but it still meets all the requirements for the capture & editing tools.
All I want to do is take all my old VHS tapes and convert them to DVD - nothing really fancy, but I am having lots of problems just figuring out which are the best tools to use. I have read forums (including papjohn's) & still don't quite understand the problem. I also downloaded DivX codec & a trial program to convert to that. The way I see it I am capturing the video, converting to AVI, editing, converting back to mpeg - all just to burn a DVD. Is this the correct way to proceed. Can someone help me? Thanks.
