Camera Issues to Bring in 2011

Happy New Year's everyone!


Or at least, to anyone that isn't on the Western Hemisphere. I have like 4 and half hours myself.

I was actually going to post something the slightest bit interesting, but I really just don't feel like it after experiencing this level of stress.

Why are you stressed out, Gemmie?

Well, pretend audience, there are many reasons as to why I am stressed, but the main reason is that video I was hoping to make for you kiddos.

O my, G! You made a video?!

Sure 'nuff. Got a camera on Wednesday and made part of a video yesterday. But then my memory ran out after I got to 40 clips with at least 15 takes on each one.
So I uploaded it all and found out that my computer cannot open the video clips.

Why?

If you stopped interrupting, pretend audience, I would tell you.
It's because the videos on Canon cameras automatically save to .MOV file types which only work on MACS.
Stupid Canon. Not everyone has a freaking Apple computer.
So I try converting it all to .AVI which works on Windows computers, but then I find out that THERE IS NO SOUND.
And I am NOT using an online converter after I installed that ZoomBrowser EX thing.

So yeah, I have been looking for a way to fix it but I just do not understand tech-head talk.
Basically, there won't be a video tomorrow... OR EVER. At least not until:
a. I figure out how to get the sound up and edit videos using Windows Movie Maker (which sucks ass)
b. My sister will let me use her Macbook, which doesn't need to have exported files
c. I get a Mac of my own
And all of those are highly unlikely.

Sorry kids for disappointing you but I've tried nearly everything just short of calling a Geek Squad member to help me in the simplest way possible.
I am on THISCLOSE to hitting my head with a hammer.

TWGS ♥ (kind of)
