videos side by side

[danieldunn10]

Hey, I have two avi video files. I want to be able to join them together so they play side by side.

Is there any free program on the web I can use to do this?

Thanks for any help, Dan

I know AviSynth can do this, have seen the script posted.

Thanks guys, it took me a while to figure out the program but thats awsome!

The next thing I want to be able to do is just add a simple line and text to my video between certain frames.

Can I use this program? or is there a free one on the web that will do this, I dont want to spend loads on vdeo editors if all I want to do is add a line!

Thanks for your help this forum rules!

A subtitle script and subtitle filter, still using AVISynth, is one way.

Thanks for your help, I can make subtitles with text now.

Is there a way to draw lines?

Thanks, Dan

To get really fancy, you could use the overlay filter. That way you can "draw" anything on screen.

Thanks for your reply,

How can I use the overlay filter?

Could you post a simple xample of how I can draw a line and add simple text using this filter?

Thanks for your help, sorry im a noob!

Never tried it - Read on here
I use to try my avisynth scripts out by loading them in MediaPlayer Classic.
