Yeah, I know it's been discussed ad infinitum, but I never needed it before.
I videoed the show of Inanimus (my room mate's grandson's band https://www.inanimus.com/?fbclid=IwAR2PwgMSE96PLQQndUBtRbPHrzAZaV1vc0coJOnR4I1HLBCE-k3hKwXFZtU ) a few days ago using my Samsung HD camera. But it only saves the video on my computer in their proprietary format and can only be edited in their program. That program won't download to my W10 computer from the camera. It will to my WXP DAW computer.
It will play back on the XP machine, jerkily. The audio plays seamlessly, but the video is stop-start all the way through.
I managed to capture the MP4 files on this (W10) computer but have the same jerky playback in WMP. Says the format is unsupported.
I'm sure I had Windows Movie Maker on this machine before I upgraded to W10, but it ain't here now. All I have is something called "Video Editor", which sucks.
I have Windows Movie Maker on the XP box but, as mentioned, it doesn't play well.
Looking on the Best Buy website, I see several inexpensive programs from Majix, Pinnacle, Cyberlink and Sony.
Recommendations wanted and remember I'm retired now and on a fixed income. Eighty dollars or less.
Thanks!
