Well, no one's ever called me "Angie" before (except my mom)! A video capture card will come with a software driver, but using the editing program that comes with it is entirely optional. In my lab, we use Adobe Premiere, which is an expensive editing program and definitely not bundled with the video capture card. > I am inclined to agree, but with a really good compression program and > enough people who understand how to use it, maybe having Quicktime or > MPEG files is not wholly bad.

I was about to suggest this as well. With my colleagues at UNM, I've given up emailing video files as attachments, and just put them up on the department web server. That way they're available for everyone to download. -- -Angus B. Grieve-Smith Linguistics Department University of New Mexico |
