Needless to say, you already have a computer and a DV. You just need to add an extra acquisition card to your computer. If you want to buy an acquisition card, you must buy a better one. 1394 interface and USB2.0 transfer to the computer with poor effect. It is recommended to buy a bad card (Snazii *ⅲPCI, VCD/SVCD/DVD production/mixer compression chip/MPEG-1/MPEG-2/Full1).
You can directly transfer the DV tape 1: 1 to the computer hard disk, which means you have to shoot the DV tape for one hour. You can buy it at 1580 RMB, because I bought it in Guangzhou Pacific, and the online quotation is very expensive.
VCD is in mpg format,1.5m/s; DVD is mpg2 format, 5m/s; So when you transfer a DVD, you must have a large space on the hard disk to save the video files.
Second, the production process: assembling the acquisition card-wiring-setting the parameters of the acquisition card-collecting-editing-burning DVD.
Detailed steps:
1. Install the acquisition card. Plug Snazzi *ⅲ Ⅲ into PCI and install the driver. The next step is to install the driver. After the acquisition card is completed, an icon will appear on the desktop, which is the acquisition software supporting the acquisition card itself.
2. wiring. Connect the S port to the S port of the acquisition card, and the left and right audio channels of the AV line are connected to the sound input port of the acquisition card through an acquisition head (generally, one or two acquisition cards are sent to the salesperson).
In addition to the old machine, the new machine now has S port and AV port, which are output through S port line and AV line respectively. S port line is specially connected to video output, and AV line is connected to left and right channel output. Although the yellow line of the AV line can also output video, if there is an S-terminal line, use the S-terminal line. If there is no S line, the yellow line of AV will output video, because the video output from S terminal is better.
3. Set the parameters of the acquisition card. Connect the line, you remember to rewind the DV tape to the front, and remember this. Before acquisition, play a video content and set the parameters of the acquisition software, including contrast, color and brightness. If it's Snazzi * III, just drag the contrast to 78 to 80. Set the path, that is, which disk the collected video file is saved on. Of course, you save it on the largest disk. Remember to create a new directory casually, it's easy to find.
After setting the parameters, pay attention to whether the speaker sound is abnormal and whether there is noise. If there is noise, the audio input line of the AV line and the acquisition line is not connected correctly.
4. Start collecting. Set the parameters, where to save them, and start collecting after the sound is normal. The collection process is long, which is the best. VCD is usually saved once every 20 minutes from 15, and DVD is usually saved once every 20 minutes, which is convenient for later editing.
5, editing, also known as post-production. This depends on personal skills. If it's easier to use, use audio and video. It is recommended to be convenient to use. There must be some jitter when shooting. You want to cut off the black screen or shaking content, then this time is finished. VCD editing is convenient, and there are many softwares that can be used, such as audio and video. I use Ifilm；; DVD, editing is more troublesome, and there are many softwares, such as WINDVDEDIT. I use NEROEXPLESS. Personally like, familiar with which software to use, it feels almost the same, and no one is more convenient. But if you add subtitles, it is most convenient to listen to the sound and listen to the film.
6. Burning. After editing, it was burned. If you think the fifth step is troublesome, you can burn it directly as soon as you finish it. Recommended software: NeroBurningrom6.0, but if you want to register, you can add me QQ260998 198, and I can tell you how to download, install and register. It's NERO6.0. Tell me how to burn it.
The recording process of NERO is as follows: Enter the software, and if you want to record VCD, select "Record Video Disc" and DVD select "Record DVD Video". Click, press and hold the left mouse button to drag the collected video files, arrange them in order, and just click to record.
Before burning, pay attention to a problem of choosing the burning speed. Don't be greedy. Now it's best to 16 times the speed to carve VCD and 4 times the speed to carve DVD, and try not to exceed 8 times the speed. It's good to gather so well, this time. If it is too fast, there will be two effects: A can't be played on the DVD player, and B can be played, and the effect is not very good.
This is probably the process, depending on how detailed your research is. Personal experience, there are still shortcomings, please correct me.
