Guest Blackberry Posted September 22, 2007 Posted September 22, 2007 Hi All I work for a number of schools and they are always trying to enhance their pupils' learning with visual/interactive stuff instead of boring old school methods. They were doing topics on World War II and the teachers wanted to cut out video clips of famous films, eg Saving Private Ryan, Pearl Harbour, etc, so that the compiled content would be OK for young eyes. Problem is the current crop of 'stick a DVD, select a chunk, extract it and save it as a video file' software appears to be rubbish! The only decent one that I managed to find was a prog called MovAvi that was simple to use and was OK for screenshots, but the left and right marker function that allows the user to grab a snippet of video is crap. Everytime you move the left marker it bounces back to the beginning again there is no fluid movement with it. Any ideas on better software for this specific task, whilst at the same time not being a newbie's nightmare and a techie's dream? Thanks
