- I had some digital video shot last week on mini DV, with the 2 tapes backed up onto DVD. I now want to edit the two tapes into a single one (it's a two camera setup of two people in conversation) for final crunching into Flash video for the web.
The two tapes don't work in my Sony VX1000 camera so I can't capture them as I intended, so I switched to the two DVD's and ripped the video using handbrake on a mac to mp4 format.
The resulting files are around 350 megs each but they are proving very difficult to edit - even simply using quicktime pro they are very unwieldy, and would take huge amounts of time to import into an editing program on a 2x500 G4 mac. (200 hours +)
Anyone got any tips on making them more usable - I was thinking of putting them both in adobe premiere since they have the same audio track and just jumping from one file to the other.
Thanks in advance for any info
