New User And Rookie Using Video Wave Features


CoachE

Question

 

I'm a humble basketball coach and new user to any video software. I have been using Video Wave to edit opponents videos to show tendencies and breakdown offenses. I have found Video wave useful so far but am having trouble with the keeping the text on one part of the edit. I would also like to know if there is a way to edit the same film and not have to continue to copy and past into the next frame then scroll forward to the spot where I left off. Any tips would be appreciated.

My assistant coach is a rookie and first year teacher. I'm asking alot of him just getting to the weightroom 4 days a week.

 

Let us know how it goes for you. You should delegate the video editing, to your assistant coach. :)

I also have questions about the feature plug and burn. Do I have to capture to burn to disk or can i skip the rendering time?

You can't skip rendering time. Plug and Burn is something that I did one time, just to see if it would work. It did for me, but there have been numerous posts, in the past, from folks who had problems with it.

 

IMHO, burning on the fly should be avoided.

My problem is time. I would like to be able to burn DVD's on the way home on my laptop from my camera and be ready to work on stats before the next morning because of having double weekends. i guess i could always judt copy it with a stand alone DVD copier.

I assume you are applying text to a certain video clip and later if you make some adjustment to earlier clips the text has "shifted" on the timeline. Is this correct? If yes then simply switch to the internal tracks for the clip and add the text on the internal tracks. Now the text will always stay with that part of the clip no matter where it is on the timeline. If this not what you want to do then you will have to explain a bit more on what you want to do and what you are doing.

 

You will have to explain more exactly what you want to do regarding the "same film". I don't quite understand what it is you are doing or want to do.

I will try the internal tracks suggestion.

 

When editing a game film using VHS I would just "clip" the part of the film I wanted to put on the edit tape and then resume watching the original. When the next item I wanted to clip was on, I would be all set to clip again then return. I used the go video system and the tape deck was a dual. I want to copy the part of the film I'm watching then just return to the original without having to restart the film from the beginning.

You have to first capture the video clips from your VHS tape to your hard drive. Then you add those clips in Videowave and do your editing there.

 

I don't see what editing using tape decks has to do with EMC 10.

I was refering to how I used to make edit tapes for my players wnen I spoke of VHS dubbing. I'm trying to move into the 21st century with my scout/editing process.

 

I do have the films captured.

 

I watch the films, find the parts I want to put on a DVD and then put them in the order I have them on my written scouting report so my players have a better visual.

 

I know it shouldn't be complicated but I'm new to the system.

 

I would also like to chapter each type of segment.

 

BLOBs (Baseline out of bounds plays)

 

SLOBs (sideline)

 

Transition series

 

Sets and so forth

Acrually, it's not necessarily complicated, but it is time consuming. There are no real shortcuts to editing video.

I assume that each of the BLOBS, SLOBS, etc segments may consist of one or more clips and you want each segment to be selectable from the main menu page.

Those segments would be called Titles in video terminology. Each of these titles then could be sub-divied into chapters. That is how I would create the total project.

 

I would use Videowave to create a project for each segment (Title). Then using myDVD I would add each Title separately to create a menu page. You can then create chapters manually for each Title if so desired.
