Upload clips from two episodes....

Okay.... ill try to explain this. You know when you upload an episode, it takes a few minutes, and uploads all the clips? Well, in most amv's, the amv has many episodes in it, and I imaging uploading each different set of clips would be time-consuming... so im wondering if its possible to upload clips from multiple episodes on to windows movie maker. Tell me if I didnt make that clear enough.

okay i am guessing youre talking about importing video into windows movie maker...

most "capture" and import is time consuming, if you know what parts of what episodes you want to use you can use virtualdub to capture the clips you want then import them individually into windows movie maker:

then go to file->save

use those to mark the beginning and the end of the "clips" you want so you can save room

For my last video I tried to do that, but Vdub wouldn't capture what I needed, it would always capture the wrong part (when I when I marked it) so I just took notes on the episode and imported the full episode into WMM and found it that way. I also made clips so I wouldn't have to copy and paste all the time or go through the entire episode. Once I found what I needed it was pretty easy to get to the clips.

Let me try to explain a bit more... when you upload videos, it has around 100 clips right? If you want to switch videos you have to import another episode which then replaces the one you just had imported. Is there anyway to import them all without switching?

Create multiple collections in WMM?

Yah, I think he just doesn't know how to access his diffrent things that hold clips.

when you "add" footage to wmm it doesn't replace anything.

Click the "collections" tab which is next to the "task" tab and everything you impored should be there in a list on your left hand side

Using WMM2 or even 1 it should save the clips you import... but if you know your footage well the other option is to, when importing, uncheck the option to make clips. It'll import the video into your collections as one clip and then you've gotta go in and find/slice the part you want by hand, but at least it's faster.
