Favorite advanced video editor

[reboot]

Premiere users have remained wordless after seing/used it.

Too busy rebooting due to another crash

I have to admit I always go back to avisynth in the end. That is how it is, and how it is going to stay unless an Apple drops from the tree (unlikely event)

AviSynth and Virtual Dub. Great pair. Great price. Very powerful! Lots of free and powerful filters available too.

I know you can cut video with VirtualDub but no way does simply cutting sound and picture at the same point and removing chunks make it 'editing' software

Quote from the author of VirtualDub:

"VirtualDub isn't an editor application; it's a pre- and post-processor that works as a valuable companion to one".

That's good enough for me LOL.

Don't get me wrong, VirtualDub is fantastic. I use it every day for capture, filtering and frameserving. Vegas for editing I need to lay sound and picture on separate tracks, offset sound, carry it over different visuals, add transitions and titles, mix the soundtrack.

Avisynth. Hands down. Free, very versitile. Works in YUY2 colorspace (and YV12?). Many different filters. I'm an old DOS guy so the "learning curve" is a non factor for the most part.

Vegas.

Sony Vegas / Vegas Movie Studio should not be listed together. A professional NLE should not be grouped with a consumer level NLE.

ULead Videostudio and ULead Media Studio Pro really should be two separate choices, IMO, as the one is not even remotely in the same league as the other. It's like having a poll for "Favorite word processor" and lumping Wordpad with MS Word XP.
