Video Editing Software for Power PC G5 OSX 10.5.8

Hello,
I hope I am in the correct computer category. I have a PowerPC G5 OSX 10.5.8. I have a lot of video editing that I would like to do, but don't have a program. I can't afford to buy a new computer, but would like to know if anyone has suggestions on what versions of Final Cut, or any other editing program would work on my computer.
Thanks.

Budgetary restraints would push me to suggesting looking on eBay etc for Final Cut Express 3.5. It's the previous version of this software, and some say better than the current version.
If you do need more than FCE, you could also look for Final Cut Pro 5.0/5.1, which would likely do anything you'd need, for much less than the shelf price of the latest Final Cut Studio at an Apple dealer.

Hi, I need a video editing software for my Power Mac G5 system. Hunted all over for one! Can anyone help me and point me in the right direction. Everything I come across is for intel based systems. Many thanks in advance.

I have Final Cut Studio V1 - the PPC/Intel V5/5.1 cross-grade version, which would suit your requirements perfectly. (I have it for sale at present down here).
If you keep looking, you're sure to find a similar second hand copy in your area, without the need to upgrade your graphics card.
I'd go for Final Cut Pro as above over any version of Express. FCP has the full version of LiveType - not the truncated version that was released later on.

HP is pretty reticent to revealing "Future Plans". It would be a real shot in the arm though if this happens!
How about it @Ty1 ? Can you shed any light on the subject?

Any suggestions on a good video editing software for MacBook Pro

I have just joined the MacBook Pro community would like an idea for good video software options

Also, compare the hardware specification (not just minimums) needed to actually
use the video editing software; plus consider external storage options of huge
capacity since most portable computers don't really have all that much storage.
A few years ago some suggested Avid Media Composer as professional software
but then in the same discussion, said the MacBook Pro may not be able to handle
the demands of the application; and went on to suggest an Apple Mac Pro tower.
Some software needs require further study prior to committing resources & funds
to discover perhaps the product may/may not be adequate. Avid likely is still costly.
Hopefully you can get a great editor with a few creative options, for a decent price.
Good luck & happy computing!

Windows Video Editing Software for Vado HD

I just got the Vado HD and I am having trouble getting it to work in any video editing programs I try.
It will not work in windows movie maker, ulead video studio, or power director. It works the best in Pinnacle Studio 2, but the video in the preview window is all messed up so?I can't really see what I am working on.
Any ideas?Is there anybody else using this product with windows? If so, what software do you use for editing the videos?

There's some posts in this forum about what people have successfully used.
Me.. I was running XP, now Vista, with the same Video Editing package:
)Magix Movie Edit Pro 4+.
Although it was less than $50 just a month ago:

'Firstdown80' reported the following as working:

What is the best video editing software for Mac?

I am trying to edit videos, specifically .wmv and .mpg files to put in PowerPoint presentations. What is the best software for cropping movies as well as cutting different scenes out of video (i.e. making a 2 minute video into a 30 second video). Thanks so much for the help.

iMovie will not edit WVM nor MPEG-1. You would need to convert the movies to one of the formats iMovie can accept before you could edit them. If you will need the movies to remain or end up in WMV or MPEG-1, I'd suggest looking to a different editor. StreamClip might work for just doing basic editing:

To edit WMV you'll need the paid Flip4Mac plugin from Telestream:

What is some good video editing software for the Imac?

We just got a Imac for my church but Imovie is not cutting it, I need software that can capture video through a firewire. Can then edit it with adding effects such as fading in and out. Then it needs to be able to/have included software that I can use to put the video onto a dvd. I want to know of the best stuff out there. Thanks!

I need software that can capture video through a firewire.
Here is how I do it (I have tried almost everything).
For maximum quality here is my procedure: ADVC300 > iMovie 06 > iDVD 11
http://www.videoguys.com/Item/Grass+Valley+ADVC300/035303230363.aspx
I would use iMovie 06 with iDVD 09/11, why?
iMovie 09/11 uses 'single field processing' meaning every other horizontal line of the video is thrown out, which reduces the sharpness of the footage. iMovie 06 uses ALL of the image to form the video.

Is there ANY good video editing software for Linux??

I am at my wit's end. ALL I want to do is put picture-in-picture. Here's what I've run into:
Avidemux: Hardly actually does anything. Beyond trimming files, this thing's pretty much worthless.
OpenMovieEditor: Won't read my video files.
KDenLive: Annihilates my processor, and the sync goes off every time I trim clips
Cinelerra: crashes whenever I load any files.
LiVES: No idea if this does it, but the documentation seems to say no.
I'm about to lose my damn mind here. Is there anything I'm missing?

Blender's sequence editor can do picture in picture:

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a bunch of plug-ins that suit what you need, whether internal or third party.

N93 video editing software

my bro found a N93i few days ago, and he said the phones has video editing software, and wants 2 no if there a video editing software for the pc for the n93 and if so, can it be downloaded

There are about 500,000 different video editing solutions that you can use in the PC.
Can you be more specific?
Windows Movie Maker.
Nero Platnium
Roxio Creator
DVD Maker Plus
Adobe Elements
RealProducer Plus
Etc.
Etc.
And each one will require something else to work with MPEG-4 videos. So depending on what you want to use then you may need different support.
640K Should be enough for everybody

Video editing software go pro

What is the best option for free or cheap video editing software for go pro videos with Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard.

of course footage from GoPro can be edited.
GoPro records in mp4 (h264) the files are transfered from the camera to the Mac and then converted with MPEG Streamclip, for iMovie to DV stream, this is a well established procedure.

Easy Video Editing Software?

Hi folks
I'm wondering if anyone here knows of a good, reliable video editing software for the iMac that will easily support the use of HD Videos?
I need some software to do easy, quick and simple editing, mainly traiming, adding music and adding transition effects but I don't like iMovie as its kinda awkward to use and does not seem to support many video formats... mainly for me it doesn't allow me to import the MPG4 files from my camcorder.
Any suggestions would be great thanks!

If you want both easy and free, and you want to work on a Mac, I would stay with iMovie, but use MPEGStreamclip to export your MP4 file to a Quick Time as a preliminary step. Final Cut Pro X will work with most MP4, but works more reliably if first converted to mov. (However, if you're not crazy about like iMovie, you will probably not like FCP either.)
Premier Pro would probably edit your files natively, but it is a fairly pricey option. If you're interested, go to the Adobe web site and download a trial version to test how you like it and how well it will work with your camera.
Good luck.

Best video editing software available 2014 for iMac

Need suggestions for best video editing software available Nov 2014 for iMac.

If by best you mean the most editing tools and effects available, and used by most professional video studios, that would be either the Adobe Premiere Pro suite, or Avid. Neither of which is cheap. Final Cut Studio used to have a pretty generous share of that professional market, but FCP X was such a radical change to the app (not to mention not even being able to open standing FCS projects with it), many former FCS users switched to Adobe or Avid.
For inexpensive and still a lot of power, FCP X is a steal.

Hi. Does anyone know what video editing software is compatible with my MacBook - version 10.6.3? I am looking to edit films and already have Final Cut Pro, but am looking for something a little more basic and easier to use. Thanks. Vicki

Hi Cereskit
Thanks again for the message. I've done the updates and have the App Store on my desktop. I went into it and searched for imovie but couldn't find the basic imovie, which I presume is what I'd need for editing?, rather than imovie 11 for £10.49, which is for making trailers, it seems. Also, were you saying that imovie would be free?

You stumbled on a Mac Tower forum, not notebooks.
If you are running 10.6.8 then you must have bought it 3-4 yrs ago?
Might want to check the specs and then look at various programs and their requirements as to whether Final Cut Express and ah, you want to import media to an app, not "upload."
