Hello all,

I am looking for some good software which I can use to edit videos and place some text while playing the video..Can anyone help me out in this?

Hi, Naman.

How much are you willing to pay for it. AFAIK, there are no good, free video-editing programs. I'd love to hear otherwise.

Microsoft used to have a good, free one--Movie Maker. It came with Windows through Vista, then became a downloadable freebie (part of the Windows Essentials collection). They still have it, but they simplified the program to the point of making it useless.

is the text you need to place a watermark or subtitles? or both?
what other editing operations do you need to make?

Years ago I bought a JVC JX-T66 Character Generator (Titler) component. It's consumer grade, not professional. It was $99.00. The video signal is run through the processor & you create whatever txt you want to appear on the output video. It has a QWERTY keyboard & a bunch of memory buttons. You can select txt size, choose accented letters. Also has 7 languages, Scrolling, Zooming, & 8 pg. memory.

Google JVC JX-T66 & see what you get. You might also set up an E-bay search so that if one ever becomes avail. on E-bay, you'll get a E-mail msg. about it.

Well I was thinking that If i can get it for free then I would be a lot better for me. Though I can spend 25$ for this but not more than this.

VideoPad Video Editor is the best software for video editing.

Nobody used Adobe Premiere? I think this one is a professional one.And we can add many effects on the video.
