Stitches040 Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 Hey Guys .... I have received a new piece of Surveillance equipment, which records on a 60 gb hard drive. Once the video is recorded, all the images are played through Apple QuickTime. It records at a rate of 30 JPEGs a Second. Not bad. Just wondering where I can now go to edit the video. I can not find anything that comes with the equipment that tells me how to edit the video. This is due to I may need to zoom in or brighten up what is being videoed. BTW ... I have some nice video of the Deer in my backyard. I'm trying now to load it up on YouTube.com .... Thanks in advance .... Shuan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big O Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 its probably played (associated) with QuickTime, but the file extension is something else. If you can post up what the file extension is, smart people will be able to help find a proggy to edit with. Did you try opening it with Windows Movie Maker, or import video in that program?

Stitches040 Posted December 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 It is saved on my work computer as a MOV file. But when I download the Harddrive, everything is saved as an "FFV" file? Does that make any sence. Also it has to be in a "Fat 32" something or other????

Big O Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 I'm guessing you will have to convert the .mov to .avi or something similar. There are some .mov editors out there but it doesn't seem like there is a clear cut winner yet. Most people are converting to .avi or DVD formats and then editing with Windows Movie Maker. Unfortunetly the file size gets pretty large. Some people are upgrading to QuickTime PRO and it has some exporting / editing features ( I've been told, never looked into). Just some random thoughts, I don't have any experience with any .mov editing, just some light reading I came across when I started to convert files to work on my phones and PDA's and such.

Big O Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 also Fat32 is just the structure format for the media storage. Basically it is accepted by all operating systems and makes it really easy to transfer media between different operating systems. Basically a table of contents (or dewey decimal system) for the information to be shared/used. As Far As I Know anyways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
