Here is the real trade secret... Dump the JUNK.

In the last post I said there was a difference between your PC and our PC.

Our PC is configured and optimised to do high level stuff like video capturing and DVD burning at the highest quality. DVDs we produce must be crisp, sharp and play smoothly on any DVD player.

There is a long checklist to configure and optimise our PC. I will be revealing only 2 items for you.

1. Remove Adwares and Spywares Daily.
Adwares and Spywares enter our PC when connected to the web. Some are friendly some are not. But all of them hinders the speed we need to process videos optimally. Scan and remove them daily. I recommend installing the free Yahoo Toolbar on IE. It comes with a spyware remover. All free. Don't be tricked into buying a spyware remover. It is free on Yahoo Toolbar. Go download and install it now!

2. Remove unused and temporary files.
This is also free. I found a freeware system optimization and privacy tool. It combines a system cleaner that removes unused and temporary files from your system and also a fully featured registry cleaner! It also cleans traces of your online activities such as your Internet history. Windows will run faster, more efficiently and gives you more hard disk space.The best part is that it's Small, Fast and Free! This kind of software is hard to come by for free. Most online vendors are charging the sky for something less powerful. I am keeping this safe for myself just in case the creator decide to start charging. You can download it from my private folder.

Macbook Air M1 Case

I bought a transparent case for my MacBook Air M1 . It came with a free screen protector, a keyboard cover, and some rubber plugs to cover the ports. Check it out! https://youtu.be/d-wALSd3nn8 I didn't expect the rubber plugs. It was a nice surprise. The case fits snuggly, with access to all the ports. The keyboard cover is almost invisible to the eye. I have no intention to use the screen protector. Why? I need to see the true color of the display for my YouTube videos. ~ Adrian Lee  @Adrian Video Image  The video was recorded on iPhone 12 Pro Max with Filmic Pro app in 4K 60fps and edited with Capcut.

Sony Vegas Pro 8 Tutorial - Multicamera Editing

Sony Vegas Pro 8 makes it easier to edit videos from different cameras right from the timeline. You can capture and edit video for a single scene from 2 or more cameras or for a single scene shot a few times with one camera. Here is a tutorial of a Multicamera Edit of a drama I shot. The drama was acted out four times to the public and being a non-profit organization, the client have budget only for one videographer. For each of the 4 acts, the camcorder (Sony HDR-FX7 High Definition Camcorder) was placed at 4 different positions and shot in various angles. Multicamera edit is accomplished in only 8 steps with the Sony Vegas Pro 8. Step #1: Capture Multicamera Video Clips Use the normal Sony Vegas Video Capture function to capture recordings from each camera. Give each capture filename a unique name. Enable scene detection before capturing so that each segment is captured as a separate clip. Step #2 : Layout Video Clips on Timeline Drag and drop video clips over each other on the...

FCPX - The storage device "Macintosh HD" is almost full

The message "The storage device Macintosh HD is almost full" appeared when I was editing a video with Final Cut Pro X on my new Apple Macbook Air M1.   Final Cut Pro Taking up Too Much Space  My Macbook Air M1 had only 256GB of storage onboard. My raw footage was only about 9GB. The biggest file was the FCPX project files itself at about 140GB! How did 9GB become 140GB? There is not enough disk space for my Final Cut Pro. Why Is Final Cut Pro Taking up So Much Storage Final Cut Pro renders files in high-quality media so that we can playback our edits smoothly direct from the timeline.  It creates multiple HUGE high-quality files of our footage in the background.   It is a good thing, so as to maintain high-quality final edited video, BUT not a good thing for a laptop with only 256GB. How to Clear Disk Space on Final Cut Pro The question is how to delete the rendered files in FCPX? 1. Select the library in FCPX...  2. Go to Files > Delete Generated L...
