I've been doing mpeg video for 3 years now.
Video players can start and stop anywhere in a mpeg file.
Why not just start and stop to skip offensive material or advertisements
I seldom shoot anything I don't want.
The one I use can randomly select a video then pick a random
start point in that video. Then play a few seconds in slow motion.
Then freeze on the last frame for a few more seconds.
Then play another and another.
It is refreshing to watch unedited video.
No 5 seconds of this, then jumping to that scene.
When you don't edit, there is no jumble of mini clips everywhere.
Much easier to just backup the originals.
You can't be shooting good video, when you are at the computer
bit fiddling.
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

That's like throwing a bucket of paint at a wall. You can say that it's painted, but it looks like crap warmed over.
It may be all fine to you and that's just fine if you're the only one watching, just don't expect anybody else to want to watch it. Video editing, just like painting is an art. Some see the need for it, while others don't.I stand up next a mountain and chop it down with the ledge of my hand........ I'm a Voodoo child.... Jimi Hendrix,

Kinda hoping there would be a few passionate responses.
Besides not editing.
Sometimes, I don't look in the viewfinder, when videoing.
So I don't trip up, when hurry through the bush behind my trapper friend.
The video is smoother and I can look around for other interesting scenes.
I even extend the tripod and camera way over my head. (skycam)
In the last while I have captured some interesting video:
-Black & White crow on video (European hooded crow, here in Canada?)
-McLeod River ice jam breaks free (pretty impressive)
-National Fastball tournament (by first base and followed the pitches)
-Large round stone 18 tons (a number of smaller ones in the area)
-Dinosaur skin find. (rarer than dino eggs)
-Hawk hits window (in slow motion)
-Porcupine scurries up a tree.
What have you videoed lately, or do you just bit fiddle?
Some less interesting videos were political forums.
One was at noon and by the second one in the evening
(in another town) I gave all 5 candidates a copy when they arrived.
Even videoed them rigging the questions at a Civic forum.
If it is a news video and you wait a couple days while you are editing
nobody is interested. Not many people, viewing tsunami videos these days.
99.9% of the people currently buying Camcorders arn't professionals
and have little interest in editing.
Some "video experts" make it seem like it is a must. It's not.
With DVD's costing 25 cents, you can't possibly be editing to save space?
The Camera doesn't lie. Editing puts the whole video in question.

You edit to achieve a specific goal. If you don't have a goal that requires editting, then you don't edit. It's that simple.

If you have a video of, say, an alien spacecraft, no one wants to see the hour before that of you and your wife talking about the new drapes on your windows. That drapery footage may be preicous to you and your wife, so you don't want to lose it by handing it to the news station. Editing solves both problems.

That's editing. So don't tell me that you don't edit. You edit every time you choose where to put the camera, what direction to point it, or when to turn it on or off.

I wouldn't say no relation. Certainly you can editorialize by editing.

"The fact that you don't "edit" your video doesn't tell me that you are telling me the "truth". "
[tacky] Applause track
How does one know whether video is edited? :P
How does the viewer know what is staged?
How about in camera editing, &/or using the camera & deck for good ol' fashioned cut editing?
There is no in-context video, ever. Don't make tapes, or attention spans that long!
That said, the best video or stills tend to exagerate, are pre-planned, are staged, & always with an eye to appearing spontaneous.

Geez you guys get excited about me not editing.
Just got back in from the trapline.
There are 9 new video clips on my web site NOW.
I may not be clear on what editing is from the above posts?
Maybe it's editing that I only downloaded 9 instead of all 27 clips
I looked at them once and chose these ones.
What did you editors get done today???
May I'll just go fishing tomorrow.
Cheers

The last time I saw footage like that it was because my mother-in-law left the camera running by accident while walking around. at least three of the clips are jsut 3- 40 seconds of snow and the backs of some guys heels as he walks along. No real framing.
If that makes you happy, then you really don't need us.Read my blog here.

If you were a dog, you would appreciate it more

Some looked. The more open minded ones, I figger.
I could edit the dog's butt, to a rose or my National flag?
I'm sure there are just as many, that enjoyed yesterday's trapline action.
Anybody out there, with current video of the rainforest?
The definition for editing is pretty broad.
Everything from blinking your eyes to file splits and merges.
The real problem with video editing, is that it takes multiples, of the video time.
Almost impossible to get the video out there before, it is days and days old.
As you can see most video editors are picky picky picky.

My suggestion for SpectateSwamp is to check out the following two links as they contain information that I think he/she will find extremely interesting:
Here is the first link ---> CLICK HERE
Here is the second link ---> CLICK HERE
I think those links sum up my feelings.
