MPEG-2 dilemma, August 17, 2009
This review is from: On Location: High Sierra (DVD)
We apologize for the production troubles some have experienced. The clips are available as data DVDs with readily usable QuickTime files. Unfortunately, Amazon at the time we provided them with inventory, did not accept data files, only the MPEG-2 format used for DVD movies. As the directions stated, the correct method for using the MPEG-2 DVD is to export to digital tape without stopping and starting. Then recapture for editing as one would with footage they had shot themselves. Contact us at WorldClips.TV and we will send you a data DVD which will exceed your quality expectations and be much more user friendly. -Gary Isaacson, President

Not User Friendly, December 20, 2007
This review is from: On Location: High Sierra (DVD)
I bought this assuming I'd be getting a DVD of lots of video clips I could use in making little videos. However, I just watched it and I was VERY disappointed. All the video clips, "85" so they say, are combined into 3 VOB files -- very unhandy! There's not even any chapters which could make it at least a LITTLE easier to try and navigate through. In order to snag an individual clip, you have to play through the entire video, stop where the clip you want is, use OTHER hardware/software to re-record each little clip you want, convert it into a different video file format (MP4, AVI, WMV, etc.), and then individually save them. On top of that, the quality is not really DVD but more like VHS.
Good news is that, if you're a fan of the Lake Tahoe area, it is spectacular footage, but as I said....NOT user friendly!!! I don't recommend buying this at all, unless you own a small movie studio...
