HELP! I need an mp2 editor...

[Comfy]

Hi all!

Right, I have a capture card but it makes a lot of hiss appear on the sound.
It captures to AVI and I have converted to MPEG VCD in TMPEG but the sound is still very hissy.

Now, I have de-multiplexed and have an .MP2 file... but...

I need an editor in order to filter out the hissing.

Cool edit does not support MP2 and I have been told that SoundForge needs you to buy plug-ins.

I don't have an excessive amount ofr drive space and so converting to WAV is out of the question.

So...
Has anybody got any ideas how to filter this hissing?

Any info for a newbie who now has a big headache would be greatly appreciated indeed!

THANKS!

First, get yourself a larger hard drive. Video is seriously demanding on storage space.

Second, buy the .MPA to .WAV converter (or maybe BeSweet can do this?).

Third, use CoolEdit to filter the hiss.

Better still, find out what is introducing this hiss and correct it.

ok, first of all.. how can you have enough hard drive space to capture video but not decode a file to WAV (which takes up about as much room per minute as a VCD mpeg does - 10 mb) ??!

to answer your question.. you'll need to convert to WAV first. i use a program called dbpoweramp to do this, you can get it from www.dbpoweramp.com

Use Sound Forge and open your .avi in that and you can just edit the audio you already have stored on your hdd in the .avi without converting to wav
