hey guys,

i'm obviously new, but i do try and do my own research. i know this is probably covered here somewhere and believe me i've tried.

but here goes, i have some video projects that i created using pinnacle studio7 then converted to mpeg2 for output to svcd. this was 2 years ago, i now want to import these projects back into S7 to combine and re-edit. S7 will only recognize AVI2 (so i'm told) so i would like to know if mpeg can be converted to AVI or is it like whitteling your bat into a toothpick and then trying to get your bat back?

i've heard of a program called 'canopus'? (i think that's the name)

of course i'm under the gun and any help would be super appreciated. i appologize in advance for not finding this on my own.

thanks guys,
truly - bus

slug,
thanks for the prompt reply!

do you have a recommended site to download. is it freeware, or does it cost dough?

i really appreciate it.

since you're going for editing its unwise to go for a lossy codec. quality is compromised here.

i would suggest use VirtualDub and huffyuv codec

And more, to be more specific, I would suggest the use of DivX multipass of Xvid multipass codec.
And only Virtualdub-MPEG2 ( http://fcchandler.home.comcast.net/stable/index.html )is able to load MPEG-2 files.
