Got myself a gopro and trying to get to grips with video editing.

Have access to Adobe Premiere CS3 via work and have managed to work out how to stitch footage together, but not sure what’s the best format to export it into?

It seemed to guide me toward AVI, which took 4hrs to compile my 20-odd-minute “movie” and while the playback quality seems good it forces me to use a rubbish video player on windows.

I thought it might be better to use MPEG like the camera saves footage, but couldn’t find that option.

So, erm, any pointers much appreciated!

And also is Premiere good for a numpty or would I be better off with something else?

Thanks in advance

Anybody?

Edit in an editing format (uncompressed and quick) then export in a delivery format. HD stuff does take a long time.
Premiere is as good as anything.

There are 3rd party convertors too that come with codecs you might not have.

Ask on a video forum for better results.

cheers for that

anyone else before I brave a strange and frightening video forum?
