Mirroring video in Womble MPEG VidWiz DVD 5? Any way to?

[Diana (Cda)]

Hi, everyone!

Since there still doesn't seem to be a Womble forum up still since it was taken down, hoping that someone here knows if it's possible to flip a video over (mirroring) in Womble 5?

I have only a one-sided video of an exercise that then goes on to describe repeating the exercise with the opposite arm yet the exercise isn't there. I can create the other side by just mirroring the video by flipping it horizontally, something I've done in the past by using a video editor. But I need to find a better way to do this. I'd like to see once and for all, if Womble can do it directly. That will avoid not only the extra work but the lossy-ness of having to re-encode a new, flipped version of the original video.

Is there any way to do this in Womble 5, anyone know? p.s., I'm not talking about any transition effect that involves rotating or flipping, I'm wondering about the actual flipping of the _entire_ video for its duration.

Thanks everyone.

Cheers.

Even if you were able to do what you want in Womble, it would require re-encoding of that section and so wouldn't be an improvement, in terms of quality, on flipping the video in another program. In fact, as Womble's built-in encoder is rubbish, it might even look worse.
