I love Sony Vegas and despise After Effects. After effects is definitely not a casual video editor you would use for a normal video. It would be awesome if you could actually get a decent preview of what you're editing in AE

I have a Mac nowadays so I use ScreenFlow to edit. I would use Final Cut Pro, but it's too much like After Effects.

Windows movie maker master race. It has a great selection of tools and transition effects.

So does anyone use virtual dub at all? I only used it for trying to encode high quality Retro games, recorded with emulators. I did try it cause i stripped a video into a gif as well, or for something else i don't remember. It used something called avisynth scripts to make things like filters and enhancement so it was fun to mess with until i forgot how to use it again.

As mentioned before virtualdub is not much of an editor so you will likely not find people using it over something with a more clip or timeline focused approach. Even without that it is tied to some older technologies (VFW for instance and has iffy support for newer formats and containers) which make it harder to work with, by no means impossible but still not ideal. The avisynth scripts you mention are actually a standalone video editor, my favourite one as a matter of fact, though they are reasonably well integrated and virtualdub filters can be called in avisynth (ish, some of the complex GUI stuff some filters sport is harder to do). You can slice things out, resize and append new footage but what would take 3 minutes in a timeline based editor , never mind if you then decide you want to change it and have a different amount of footage before a cut and certainly not a 900 shot video production.

I don't know why you would use virtualdub's screen capture over either the emulator's own record features or a more fully realised screen capture program (many are free). If you have a video capture card in your machine then it is a fantastic tool and well worth having/using; I actually use it as my primary means of interaction with such cards, even when playing/watching for fun.

I didn't use virtual dub screen capture, i used the emulator to dump video of a recorded movie file to avi format and used virtual dub to encode and re process the video into higher quality. It was in a tutorial for people who been publishing retro game console videos, but it was over 3 years ago, i would assume the method is a bit outdated. I was just trying something out.

The thing now would be that i would play the game and use a capture card like elgato hd (i don't have one, just a example) to do a recording while playing in full screen but i wanted to encode videos instead of screencap, i know is easier for screen cap but more complex for encoding.

How?
Its a 3D creation suite not a editing programm.

XD Now it's almost everything related to graphics. Maybe it'll replace GIMP in some day. You just go to the view section and change it to video editing like so:

and voila! You have Blender Video Sequence editor right now!
