Sony DCR-SR300 Hard disk camera - converting videos

by mvenkat23 Oct 27, 2007 9:52PM PDT

I connected the dock station & copied the videos into my PC. They were in MPEG-2 format. When I did that I got multiple MPEG-2 files. Instead can I merge all of them to a single mpeg4/real video etc..?

I do not want to write all of them to a DVD at this time, because all of my MPEG-2 files together will be around 150 MB.

Please Suggest.

ummm... Can you merge them?

Yes... that's what video editing applications do. MovieMaker, Sony Vegas, Pinnacle Studio, Adobe Premiere, AVID, there are lots of them.

Video takes a lot of space on your hard drive. You seem surprised. You shouldn't be. This is normal. An external hard drive is generally recommended for video project work storage.
