Hi,

I'm doing a few video tutorials and need help joining a couple of videos. Unfortunately, they're quite high quality and my graphics card won't do it without reducing the quality severely.

They can be found here: http://www.mattireland.org/tuts/c++/c++vidtuts.php

You'd get full credit on my site for joining them.

Thanks very much,

Matt. Ireland

The graphics card does not matter really. It is the software you are using that matters. Also I don't think that variable sizes are limited by the CPU.

Downloaded the files, I'll see if I can make them into a wmv so it can be streamed. I'll post the link when I upload it.

BTW, pretty cool idea and very well written and spoken. I dont know C++ but sounds fancy.

Variable sizes are dictated by the CPU. One can escape that by using around the block solutions (as in a bignum library), but atomic operations are an inextricable part of the hardware design.

Never forget that your machine is characterized by hardware. Software is merely manipulative of the underlying reality.

Matt, I might also suggest using youtube.com to host your videos.

Thanks everybody! Thanks ghost - that's a really good idea. I was thinking of streaming them from my own site but it would save a lot of space and might also increase popularity. Thanks also for your help - I really appreciate it!

@Wizard1988:

I'm using pinnacle studio 10 titanium and that says that I haven't got a good enough graphics card so I immediately assumed that it would be hardware. However, you might well know better...

@DaWei: Thanks also!

Thanks! That's a really good program... but... they have different sampling rates for some odd reason?

mattireland · Oct 29th, 2007, 4:30 PM

Can anyone else please help?

Wait, what are you trying to do? Just join the files together? I can probably help, but need to understand a bit more about exact sizes and stuff, anytime you're joining things you have to re-render them (if I recall) and so would need to know what codec to use, what sort of size file etc etc
