UW Video System

I am using Pinnacles Studio 10 software & Avid Liquid Edition 7 to edit on a Dell XPS 3.2 ghz machine with a 2 Gb of ram with 2 500 gb dirives. I am capturing the video via a firewire connection.

Both Pinnacle Studio 10 & Avid Liquid Edition 7 can create WinMedia and Real Video encoded files directly or DVD with menus.
