All right, guys this is tech kid 4473 for TKS. Now I want to show you something real quick that I've been looking at for a while now and it’s a comparison between Windows Movie Maker 3.1 and the new Windows Movie Maker—Windows Library Maker that will have movie your only choice for window seven as far as with us movie makers. So this is your friendly user in phase right for you know windows movie maker and everything. This is what you get with this stuff, okay. You get this nice thing, its pretty simple it is not simple to you, and you really need help.
You can do basic things with this and advance things with this, so that makes it really easy for me actually. So it’s a great program it’s been here since XP with the second version and now they're getting rid of it. I'm just going to import the media and I just feel better keeping it. So you're going to put much movie in this computer, movie and you get all of this different settings you can put. Now the second version in XP has a lot more but they want as high quality. The highest one was a DVD quality, now the one right here, you have up to 720p HD plus up to 10p HD so that’s pretty good if you have a high—HD camcorder back that actually saves into AVI or WMB, I can’t edit in here because my my HD camcorder saves it in .mov so I can’t use that.
So anyway and you have best quality for my computer or you can compress it to a different amounts or a certain size then you hit publish it’s that easy, it’s published you can post it to You Tube and do whatever the heck you want with it. So it is a great feature right?
Then why is Microsoft removing it in Window 7? Well let me just show you really quick what they are actually putting in to it. If you go to—I'm going to type in here Windows Live Movie Maker Beta, we get that part right—hopefully, they changed it this really is the data. This is what you see, something—is this really it? Let me ask—yes, it is.
Look at this, okay. Open top part, it doesn’t look like much. So okay, I want to make a movie here or so I'm going to make a beginning title—what do I’ll do? Edit Textbox put, so I have to have—I found out that I have to have the video in there first. So, I go to Home, Add a Video—let's take right here. Okay, so we got that, we’ve got to play it. This little intro right there and now I want to go to Edit Textbox. Okay, so I'm going to type in title and I don’t know what's going over it and I don’t know what is going over it.
So I'm going to type in tech kid for TKS, okay. I click off, I didn’t mean to click off—I thought you can move it, I thought it was like an after effects or something like that and any other program where you could move it after you—well that sucks, so now you're going to hit undo. But wait a minute undo doesn’t work, you're kidding me that, okay—so what am I supposed to do now? Well you're screwed, you have to start all over again, you make one mistake, you're screwed. There is no undo option.
So you're thinking, “Well whatever I will just make sure I click where I want it” that’s fine go ahead. So you go make a—import another video let's say this one. And you put that in but okay, so you want to put it—this is really not as simple as it looks because what you're doing is the transitions but there is no timeline so you don’t—it’s just a storyboard but its vertical so you don’t know really—and now it can be horizontal too and zoom out. But you don’t know when it’s going to be lined up. So then you go—also go back here at Home, add the sound track, this is also screwed up, let's do—where is that 300 sound? Okay, so now it should be playing at the same time, let’s try this. And it doesn’t sound any different. Well, because it doesn’t start yet but you can't mute this—you can just play it. And it looks horrible, it really does. You can choose mix in here but that doesn’t really do anything, but other than that it’s stupid. Visual Effects, well let's see—black and white, more black and white, more black and white, save your tone, type of a kind of a negative—that’s it, again.
That is pathetic and this was released in Window 7 which is supposed to be better than Vista—I don’t think so. Okay, I'm corrected here there is a way that you can mute the video, okay you can trim the way the video and this is a way stupider thing. I don’t know what I just I did, you can move he sound tract you can add more than one, well actually you can if you fit it, but you can’t trim the, you can trim the videos you're going to only turn the sound track. So if you don’t have, if you go to seven and you get this you have to download it but it will be premiere something if you really want a good experience.
So that’s basically all you can do with this, trim—you know I'm going through everything and I'm not done yet, look at this, going to the menu right here, output. Do you see how in Windows Movie Maker 3.1 let's see, how many options were there. There were about nine or 10, all right? So how many are there in the new Live Movie Maker—two outputs, 640x480 and 320x240 at 30 frames per second.
So, we don’t have any options here. Thinking that there is something else we can do. General, what does that mean with Movie Maker Beta, it’s the About Tab, this isn’t options. Were going to check this in—after what I've seen here, I don’t care about their trust right now. Click okay and whatever, go back in here and that’s it, that’s all windows movie maker is. And as far as importing this are the things that you can put in here. There are WMV.AVI DVR and S4 recorded shows and windows Media Center—.MPG, .MOD, .VOB, .ASF, .M1V, .M2TS, .MPT2V, .MPE, .MPEG, .MPV2, .WM, .ASX, .N2V, .MP2, .MPA, .WMX, .WVX—so that’s the videos.
As far threshers you’ve got your simple stuff and then there are videos and photos that’s it. If you have .MOV you're still screwed and that’s really—and they made they're convenient little publishing to the internet plug in which you can add a plug in but I haven’t tried that yet. And you can upload it to soft box and add some video, what they need to do is, I don’t know if they’ve done this yet I could check just make a plug in to change it to you can up load to You Tube. Like everybody else in the whole freaking world does.
Now, I'm not saying if you use like Vimi or something you're not stupid but most of the world uploads to You Tube. But as far as anything else goes in here, it’s stupid. So, the best bet is to do a boot with Windows 7, transfer your files, your video files if you download it on Windows 7, go back to Vista and then you use this movie maker. This movie maker is actually very, very nice. That’s what I'm actually using to produce an HD because—I know a lot of people have posted use to be about this but my Camtasia won’t go into HD, I just haven’t edited the settings up, too easy.
But, this makes it so simple and yet you can be so advanced. So that’s it, that’s really it. So this is TKS, you guys loves these closing credits.
