The Gorse Fox gave up with Windows Live Movie Maker. He concluded that you can only delete a scene so many times before it becomes evident the software is poking fun at you. He looked around for alternatives. He tried Corel (who now own Ulead – whose Video software he used to like) but whatever they have done to the software makes it almost unusable because it is so slow. In the end the Gorse Fox plumped for Cyberlink’s PowerDirector.
This has proved to be most successful – it is easy to use, fast, and has a pleasingly intuitive interface. So far it has allowed the Gorse Fox to edit and render 19 videos of about 30 minutes a piece.
His dear friend Mr Amazon has also contributed to the week with an Audio-USB cable that will allow him to capture old cassette tapes into a digital format. Most cassettes were ditched many years back, but there are several audio-books on cassette that it would be more convenient to have in a format that could be enjoyed on the iPod.
