all formats editing software

[wizzy]

[i_am_dave]

yeah, and is it Freeware?

[wizzy]

did i mention freeware in my question? NO!!
read better next time.....

[i_am_dave]

wizzy,

I read your question right the first time and realize you are asking if anyone knows of any software
Super software is of no use to me if I cannot affort it, and hence my comment meaning that it would also be nice if it were freeware.

also go digging on Google for ABC VideoRoll - it's freeware NLE, don't get discouraged, it's out there for download, it'll just take a while to find it. Not sure what formats it supports for input.

Unfortunately, there is no "super software" packages available that will do all these conversions for you. TMPGenc is a good encoder, but some of the conversions take numerous hours to finish. After the encoding, you will need a burning software like NERO to burn to VCDs, SVCDs, or DVDs. ULead Movie Factory 2 will convert MPEG1 to MPEG2 DVD quality files, then burn to a DVD with menus you set up. Hope this helps.

Burnmaster -

actually, Canopus Procoder looks like a good multiformat conversion app, check the specs here

http://www.canopus.com/us/products/procoder/pt_procoder.asp

and it will allow you to "stitch" together files from different formats and output them as one united file.

but I don't know how much "editing" you can do on the footage, which I thought was a major focus of the original post.... plus it's $699, which is a bit pricey for some....

I think Cleaner will also do multiformat conversions.

i_am_dave ......I AM SORRY....

right now i am using Procoder, but my question was..let me clear it:
i want to take several video clips from difrent formats...avi,wmv,divx,npeg etc..
put inside one software and the output will be one big file
(procoder just make clips from the output format i have choosen)

[housepig]

check the Procoder page I linked to.

Produce, Perfect, Process
To simplify your workflow, ProCoder provides some powerful manipulation tools to get your sources ready for conversion. Stitching allows you to link multiple sources of various formats together to create a single seamless result, preventing you from having to combine the sources in an editor

wizzy,

Don't worry about it

TMPGenc almost meets all of my needs. I only wish it could handle AC3 audio so that I could work directly with VOBs instead of having to frameserve from VirtualDub.

[terjeber]

For editing, absolutely. I use Ulead Media Studio Pro v7, it is stable, it edits all of the mentioned formats, and it outputs to whatever you want. I also understand Ulead Video Studio 7 does that. I haven't played with Vegas for a while but would be surprised if it doesn't edit all of the above formats.

Permiere is probably a bit on the old side right now, and you might have to get a plug-in or two to edit all of the mentioned formats. It should be arriving in a new version soon though, so that should be fine.

In short, any newer commercial video editor should meet your need.

Don't get me wrong. This is a great editing program anyway!!

Sonic Foundry Vegas Video 4.0 will easily do all of what you're looking for.

Premiere with proper codecs (and supporting programs like Ligos, etc) import nearly anything and Cleaner 5/6/XP will export to nearly anything. And quality of both programs is phenomenal, not free by any means, and worth every penny.

thank you all
