Trying to record footage of games like Minecraft, Fallout 3 and Mass Effect 2/3.
The problems I'm having at the moment are as follows:
Need a video editing piece of software that doesn't crash all the time or take an eternity to export video files (Windows Movie Maker always seems to do this for me).
Avidemux lets me edit video files quickly and exporting is very reliable. The only problem is audio is one or nothing. I can either swap in a MP3 track or keep the video's audio. I can't do both which is a bit annoying.
I definitely don't agree with companies charging a fortune for software. There's not enough justification for me to spend $300 on video editing software. If I had a job it'd be different but at the moment money is fairly tight.
There must be some way of adding vocal commentary to my videos somehow. Either by a piece of software which reads the avi file, or something on the internet side. Doesn't youtube or any other video hosting channel allow an extra vocal channel?
Thanks for all the advice and tips. I certainly didn't mean to derail the original thread this was posted in. I also don't mean to complain too much either, I'm very grateful for the amount of stuff I can do with free software on the net. It's just a shame that avidemux couldn't just do a little tweaking of their code and allow mixing of video audio and audio files (unless I just missed something).
Oh god, facepalm moment. I opened Avidemux, looked in audio and found this: Audio->Second Track (FACEPALM). Can't believe I never noticed that before. Oh well, problem solved. Or it would be, if it would work... which it doesn't. (sigh)
