thanks for the advise Razor, now whats resolution and how would I up it,
the story on re runs and why my camera/resolutions might be better,(when I find out what that is )

earlier last year I got a editing program for my video's, now because I am a complete novice with computers and anything digital I made a edited video and uploaded it to youtube, It was only a trail chuck so I deleted it but accidentally deleted 90 of the other video's,
So then many of my subscribers wanted them reloading and I have been doing so ,
Then my camera packed in, they wanted £112 to repair it so I bought another camera which I have't quite mastered yet, this might be where I need to adjust the resolution,
anyrode in a nutshell thats it,
So any advise on getting it right is welcome and I will act accordingly

many thanks,

It might be easier for you to send them to Chez to upload you could have your own section on UHM :wink:

Will ask the mods to move this to computing so one of the geeks can explain the resolution thinngy - us plumbums are all far too manly to worry about that sort of stuff :lol:

It appears TP has been committing the unforgivable sin of uploading low res videos to you tube.

Can anyone help us to see how handsome he really looks?

Tom,

I'm not a video man, but let me tell you - you know more about computermabobs than your average Joe!

Making, editing and uploading a video is the things dreams are made of for most people!

nice of you to say that billy, but believe me, I'm just 'feeling around in the dark' its all trial and error, when I got this new camera, I spent nearly a week trying to upload films, found out after asking loads of folks that the software in the camera itsself (arcsoft) is not compatable with windows xp, once I knew that and was shown how to upload I was away again,

I don't think you could increase the resolution on your videos with your existing camera, unless it is HD.
I must admit when you pulled your camera out of your pocket at Donna's Dreamhouse it took me by surprise as it just looked like a mobile phone :shock:

My camera's are a little bit bigger but I always mount my camera on a tripod and turn the screen around so that I can make sure I am filming what I should be (still I start filming though and talking and when I recheck the footage to edit it, I find that I have moved and have completely missed what I wanted to film)
Editing HD footage can also be very memory hungry and some older computers will struggle.

The vids are great though even in low resolution, I have learnt a few things from watching them :thumbright:

Thats the thing - you are prepared to try! Kudos to you.

The amount of people who just say "I don't know" and throw the towel in. People learn through trail and error - it's just having the balls to do it!

I always used to say "They give you discs to recovery if you screw your computer up - but you'll learn never to do it again!"
