Fastest, and preferably, free...

[xinjingqiao]

I have been working on a set of software to allow a school for disabled children in China made videos as part of their student assessment. I have been successful in getting things flowing but now need to fine tune things - the process takes a long time now. The system used is a 2.5 ghz celeron with 512 mb of ram and a 7200 rmp 80 gb hard drive. No money to upgrade

We are now using Virtualdub for editing. What is the fastest editor - preferrably freeware - out there now?

Thanks!

what video type are you editing? what are you looking to accomplish during the editing.. we need some more details before we can provide an answer.

Thanks! I am working from a Sony DV camcorder. The goal right now is to produce SVCD's to use for student assessment or for training purposes. I am a newbie so I don't know a lot of the words...ultimately we need to be able to cut and paste, fade in and out, mute sound, add in voice, add titles, menus and chapters.
