Well here is my first and probably last attempt at doing a video. It sure looked a lot better in MovieMaker. But after the save it....well I don't know it just looked bad. Tried several different saves and this one turned out the best. The file is huge so you'll want to let it load up first. Anyways I had fun. Most of this was processed while high on prescription opiates so it's kind of scatter brained. Devostevo is the main attraction.

Thanks again Steve :2thumbs:

Sweet. I was wondering when the video would be ready. Unfortunately, I have to wait until tonight to watch since youtube is blocked at work.

Where's the new bike anyway? Haven't heard about that in a while. Remember, no pics, no bike. :nod:

Here's to hoping that the snow melts enough by this weekend to do some more riding. I'm not ready to put it away just yet for the year.

You edited the post while I was typing mine. I'm waiting for the pics. :five:

Hey, that's not too bad. I agree the resolution on the video is poor, but it gets the point across. Good job on the editing too. :2thumbs:

Ah you're just being nice. :haha:

I'm not sure what happened because the actual video is quite clear. It is also clear to watch it in MovieMaker. But after finalizing it and saving the final thing the resolution sucks and it became very jerky. Quickly stopping and starting at random.

Oh well :ne_nau:

Which helmet hero camera was this?

Last years 3 meg. For the price it's not really that bad. Very small and comes with all kinds of mounting attachments. The actual video is much better. I also had add to this first video an "old vintage look" in MovieMaker.

Heres a few pics and an unedited video. As you can see not the best pics but ok. I thought that the video would look better but it seems that by uploading it to youtube the resolution gets decreased? The original video looks as good as these pictures.

I'm in love with my new baby. Hopefully today I will have more time to use my Nikon Coolpix camera and get some better pics.

Congrats on the Heckler! Don't you just love the feel of a new bike? I fall more and more in love with mine with each ride.

Hey thanks man! :2thumbs:

I just love this bike. Unfortunately I won't be able to take it out on a real ride for another week or so due to a recent sinus surgery. I'm still a hurtin and messed up. I'm hoping for a good long Indian Summer.

Yeah, youtube pretty well downgrades all videos, unless you follow sombeech's HD uploading tips.

I wasn't aware of that. I'll check into it and maybe retry a repost.

One thing I don't like about this camera's video is that there is no picture/video stabilizing that most "real" cameras seem to have now days. So you see every little bump in the video.
