First shots with my new FX-7 at DVinfo.net

I just got my FX-7 last week and took it to a Hip Hop battle over the weekend. I'm putting some shots on my YouTube page YouTube - DStoney's Channel
No correction just manual shooting on location. It's taking me a lot of time to edit and make files for YouTube. I think I'm liking the Divx files a little more than WMV. I had trouble with H.264 not working as well as I wanted.

Hey, I loved watching those folks breakdancing!

You mentioned using the free windows software DivX, you might wanna try some GNU non-linear editing software, they are free too, but only Avidemux is available for windows operating system. Avidemux - Main Page

You might wanna consider ditching windows and switching to linux. Ubuntu is an easy linux operating system with lots of forums and helpful community support and gives you access to a bunch of great free video editing software (kdenlive.org or cinelerra.org), 3d imaging software (blender.org) for making 3-d cartoons, image editing software (gimp.org) for making posters/flyers/dvdjackets, vector graphics software, etc.

Thanks for posting FX7 shots.

are you serious about editing on linux!?

Thanks. I haven't done any editing with a Linux program yet, as most of them that I have seen are still very basic. The editing is much of a problem, it was encoding a final file to upload to YouTube. I like how the Divx looks good and encodes pretty fast.
