Making poker videos

[Reef]

What software do people use to make poker vids of them playing? How hard is it to edit these vids? anything else a video noob should know? thanks

Camtasia was fast and free and easy for me. I didn't edit though, just produced.

After you capture it Windows Movie Make is a very easy to use free video editor:

Been messing with the various options of late for the "SSNL study groups".

I found CamStudio very good, even on my aging single core system. An it is Free [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Quality and file size also very good using the (also Free) Camstudio lossless codec you can download from the same page.

Virtualdub is good for editing most any AVI file.

I recorded a video with camstudio but the audio is very far ahead of the video. Any suggestions?

[Professionalpoker]

Not sure how to fix that in camstudio but most video editing programs let you split the audio from the video and slide its sync.

Fix the a/v sync with virtualdub, or another video editor.

For future reference, in camstudio do "Options -> Audio Options -> Audio and Video Synchronization" - there is a slider to adjust to prevent this happenning in future vids.

I tried adjusting that, but getting it right seems like a random shot in the dark.

Two options:

Fix with virtualdub or something else, not the ms you have to correct the audio by - use this value to offset recording.

or,

shot in dark method: record something like a single Party table with all the sound effects turned on - a single hand of video should give a good idea by how much the sound is to early/late - adjust the value, try again. Maybe require 10 recordings? before decent sync is established.


I'd probably just live with the delay and fix it post-recording, since this affords you the opportunity to re-code the audio in a more efficient format for smaller downloads anyway [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I have the dub, how do I resync the audio and video?
