My Win XP system came with Movie Maker 2 (MM2) installed so when I bought a digital video camera I tried it. For me, a beginner I was amazed at the results. I started with just using still imaging and adding background music. Within one day I had my first project finished and saved as an AVI and WMV format. Friends and relatives were pleased. My second project was an old 1 hr 28 minute 8mm analog capture directly from my Sony camera to a 13 Gb AVI file. A week later a 45 minute final project was created on VHS tapes for the relatives. I did not have the problems I anticipated from my experiences of 5 and 10 years ago. Well worth the time to learn this program. Yes, it has shortcomings, but at least I have a finished product without all of the initial frustrations which has been common in the past. I know enough of what I can look for in my next editor but MM2 is working well for me. |
