This YouTube they speak of

SOMEONE at home is crazy about videos, and it is not me — I’m more into pictures, if you haven’t noticed. Anyway, I shot, edited, and uploaded my first today. The Flip was supposed to automate things, but the software that came with it did not work on Leopard, so I ended up making the edits and upload in iMovie. Talking about killing a fly with a shotgun…

As minor as the edits are (title overlay and frame removal), I am quite pleased with them. I was skeptical about the odds of getting 175MB AVI files onto YouTube, but there appears to be some black magic going on somewhere between iMovie and YouTube that makes this happen.

The videos won’t win awards, but the ten-minute sega-thon might. Enjoy.

And, part two.

Eddy.

  2. Thanks, Aline. I’ll pass the compliment. A sega outfit is on the wish-list, but we get so bogged down by other things that we forget to buy one when we are in Mauritius.
