Hi all, |
2 |
|
3 |
recently I've been doing some better recordings (proper mic into sound |
4 |
system) along with my video camera. This means that I have two sources |
5 |
- one attached to the video, and one separate audio stream. |
6 |
|
7 |
It's not practical for me to plug the sound system into the video camera |
8 |
(although that would be ideal) because I move around too much, and a |
9 |
cable would be ... not practical :) And there are some "room noises" |
10 |
that the video camera picks up that a directional mic doesn't. |
11 |
|
12 |
aaaaanyway... I've just started using audacity to edit the "nice" audio, |
13 |
and add some simple effects, and I want to recombine that with the |
14 |
video, so that I have the nice audio + video. So I would require a |
15 |
program to do the following |
16 |
|
17 |
1. line up video and audio from separate files |
18 |
2. adjust the position of the audio frame by frame, so that I can |
19 |
get as-perfect-as-possible lip sync! |
20 |
3. video and audio not necessarily the same length |
21 |
4. mpeg or dvd compatible output |
22 |
5. mix two (or more?) audio sources into one audio+video file, with |
23 |
some simple crossfade |
24 |
6. Open software would be ideal (linux of course!), followed by |
25 |
closed-but-minimal-cost, followed by |
26 |
closed-costly-but-so-excellent-I-have-to-have-it! |
27 |
|
28 |
If there is a choice, I would prefer that the video is left as unaltered |
29 |
as possible by this program, to avoid going through too many |
30 |
conversions. |
31 |
|
32 |
I don't need any fancy editing or effects, I have other programs to do |
33 |
that! |
34 |
|
35 |
Any suggestions? I have been looking on google, but there are so many |
36 |
bad shareware programs that my results get flooded with rubbish! |
37 |
|
38 |
TIA, |
