Hi, lovely blog...
I was wondering, why are the mvids posted by group rippers always cropped?!

And by the way, do you know a piece of sofware for windows that can add effects/annotations and all kind of stuff to videos (avi,wmv and all the popular formats), one just like youtube remixer...

@Fiaf
Among the free apps, try Live Movie Maker & VideoSpin.
For advanced video editing, there's Adobe Premiere.

Re: I was wondering, why are the mvids posted by group rippers always cropped?

Windows Live Movie Maker doesn't work with Windows XP, according to Wikipedia.
Windows Movie maker 2.5 is not available anywhere for download and VideoSpin by pinnacle seems a bit confusing by looking at the different screenshots of the program + the size costs 162 MB, a bit heavy...
Any suggestions?, unless you've tried VideoSpin and found it very easy to use.

@Fiaf
I really don't know why they crop it, but I presume that if the vids have been ripped from TV, they crop it to remove the network logo or something.

If I'm not mistaken, Windows Movie Maker is built-in in XP SP2, but it's very basic.
While I haven't tried VideoSpin, it's the only good enough free alternative I've found.

In this post you talked about the HD version of New divide, do you know where i can acquire HD music videos (for free download of course)?
For your safety, you may post the link here and remove it after, lets say 12 hours, just before I have enough time to read it.

@Fiaf
My favourite is hd-bb.org

Thanks, I'll try it out. You can delete it if you want now.

Hiii, I found some other places where you can get vids:

For my own safety, delete those links after you finished with them.
