video editing

I run a video production company based in Bristol we're looking to upgrade our monitors, most of us run Mac but we're looking for a well-priced monitor that can compete with Apple's Pro Display XDR without the large price tag. Looking forward to hearing the communities thoughts here! Best, Tom

Hi all, Really hope this is the right place to post this, and apologies if not. I currently have a PC that I bought already made. I make very simple youTube videos with it and all in all it has been fine and has been relatively useful. The problems that I encounter with it is that in Premiere...

Most enquiries here relate to gaming, but I guess that this is also the place to go for a video editing upgrade. I use my desktop computer for general home use and video-editing using Blackmagic Davinci Resolve (Free edition). The free edition renders using the cpu rather than the gpu. My...

Hello A friend of mine has asked me to build them a rig that is good for getting into video editing. I haven't built one for a while and usually only build gaming rigs for myself, so I am a little out of touch with what's good and what's available. Their budget is around £800 (excluding...

How is it possible that no one has yet to come up with a piece of software as good as Win Movie Maker? The ones I have tried are wither buggy as hell (VLMC) steep learning curve or unintuitive (Shotcut) or loaded with ads. I don't want Adobe as i don't do that much but surely there's an...

Hi, Im looking for a new PC to primarily edit movies. Only HD rather than 4k. Plan to use Cyberlink Power Director. I currently have an Intel i5 2.67GHz CPU, 8GB Ram with a ATI radeon hd 5450 graphics cards and performance when editing is awful - it will fail to preview any edits before...

Hey all, I'm a bit of a novice looking for some advice on creating a build fit for video editing and music production. My current laptop (since 2017) is beginning to slow down and considering its never been able to run the Adobe Creative Suite properly, I'm now looking to upgrade into something...

Hi All, I’ve recently built this computer for video editing Sony A7Siii footage and it’s really slow in premiere pro. Ryzen 3900X Nvidia 1660 super 2 x 16GB 3200Mhz Crucial Ballistix TUF gaming X570 Plus WiFi 1TB Sabrent Rocket Nvme Others seem to be editing A7Siii footage with less...

Hello World. I am looking to buy/build a new desktop for video editing (with gaming in mind as well). I do not need it to be pretty - but efficient when in use and quiet when not rendering/encoding etc videos or running games. For video editing, I will primarily be using Adobe Premier Pro...

The video tutorials I've seen (e.g. Openshot) seem to start with you having a set of clips you want to string together. Are there any that work the other way around? That is, they start with you having a video file - be it 5 mins dashcam footage or 3 hours of Microsoft Video Recorder footage -...

This build is aimed for video editing and gaming in an $800-1000 budget, any cheaper/better suggestions would be greatly appreciated :) *** Competitor link removed ***

Hi Everyone, First time posting as I have been out the loop for a while in PC tech, trying to catch up with everything and thought it would be best to get input from people here. I am a editor working mostly at production offices but with everything that has been going on I have been working...

Hi, I am totally new to building a PC, never done it before. Can someone help me spec a PC just do some lite photo/video editing just for home use. I have a monitor.

Hello gurus, I'm hoping to pick your collective brains on video editing software. I've got a couple of little projects to edit, and I'm perhaps 95% sorted with my editing needs with the incredibly basic Magix Fastcut editing s/w which I found preloaded on this Core i5-3210 2.5GHz W10 lappy with...

Hi all, I'm about to pull the trigger on my new build but wanted to check if any of you were able to spot anything I've missed? Any parts I could replace to get better performance without wildly overspending? I'll be adding currently owned SSD storage. The machine is for 4k-6k video editing...

Hi all, I’m looking to build my first PC mainly for 4K video editing with decent, not great, gaming capabilities. I want to make sure I pick compatible components with the highest possible performance for my budget (£1500). Thanks in advance for your feedback! CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X or Ryzen 5...

Hello, I am after a new laptop primarily for video and photo editing. I am after something that has a great screen, is fast and can handle Premier Pro, Lightroom etc. My budget is around £1000 but would probably push slightly for the right option. I've been looking at i7 processors and 16gb...
