"COMPUTERS!" - Video Editing

[sharkz]

okay. so as you may or may not know, i bought a decent miniDV cam in the spring, which i've shot a decent amount with.

to edit i've been using "Video Explosion Deluxe" ... which once i edited together almost two hours worth of footage, it did a horrible job rendering.

i downloaded sony vegas the other day, only to discover that they have the same interface... and only to realise that yes, they are the same program. both developed by sonic foundry. i changed the extension of a VED project file and it opens fine in vegas. but again, i did a little test and the MPEG2 rendering is not up to snuff.

so i guess i'm asking for the opinion on whether this is the fault of having an a 1.10 ghz athlonXP still serving as my processor or whether i should still be searching for another app.
