1. What is it?
VirtualDub is a video capture/processing utility for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows platforms. It's not that powerful as Sonyvegas or any other Adobe products but it's easy to use.
2.Why does moviemaker use it?
The answer is quite easy - put screenshots together/cut them/render as uncompressen (using some losless codec)
3.Pros of using it?
Easy to use, fast, intuitive interface and possibility to queue.
4.Start - how to put your ss in to the one clip?
a) Go file>Open video file...>select first ss>press 'open'
*make sure that U have selected "Automatically load linked segments"
b) Go Video>Compression (ctrl+p)> now U have to choose best option for you which hardly basics on your amount of free space on your HDD - use lossless codec if U dont have so much space on your HDD such as Lagarith or huffyuv or
uncompressed option if U dont care of storage (links to codecs in the end).
c) Now we need to set up our fps.
Go Options>Preferences>Images and type the value which is set in your movie cfg (img_capturefps or cl_avidemo).Shortcut (ctrl+r)
d) To finish our job we have to render clip.
Gp File>Save as AVI>put uniqe name and press Save.
5.Lets speed up our work - -how to queue.
a) Lets go back to the step when we had to put images value (ctrl+r).
After that step to que our job we have to go File>Queue batch operation>Save as AVI.
To add extra jobs repeat steps 4.a, 5b.
b) Rendering:
Go File>Job control>Start (before pressing this button make sure that all jobs are added as they should be)
6.Filters - will edit soon
I do not recommend using them in vdub. Why so? We have powerful tools such as AfterEffects or SonyVegas - they are just perfect for deeper editing.
