So here I am, about to try for the first time to get my MiniDV footage via
firewire from camcorder onto my HD using Adobe Premiere as AVI. I get on the
net to see how to then write it to DVD-R disc and keep finding lengthy
tutorials on DivXAVI to DVD. Seemingly requiring more progs etc.
e.g. 7 progs in http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=61142
Is this an option or a must do. Is there just AVI and also DivXAVI and which
should I go for, being a newbie I am bemused/confused etc !!! ?
I just want for the moment to get a copy of my camcorder footage down as an
AVI, keep that for future editing (can this only be stored on a HD ?), and
give an unedited version to friends on DVD-R for them to view it on a DVD
player sat under their TV, or their PC DVD player.
I guess the latter is convert it to MPEG2 then burn to DVD.
Actually also not sure how to do that, do I convert it to MPEG2 in Premiere
then burn it, or does my Pinnacle Expression 2.2.1.2 , the DVD burning prog
I have bought (within Pinnacle InstantCD/DVD prog) do that for me ?
Help please
