Hello, I am new here and hope this is the right type of forum to get help.
I have 100's of old home movies I like to put on my computer. I know doing it myself by playing the film to a screen and recording it to camcorder is not the perfect answer but it what I can afford at this time. Plus I really enjoy working with photos and want to learn film editing. I am a graphic designer and stilled with Corel projects.
I have a working 8mm projector and some film works fine, the 1970’s stuff. However the older film is jumpy and I can't get the frame rate right on the projector.
Anyway, My thought is if it can get it on the computer there should be software I can use to adjust the frame rate the film plays at. All the software I can find is full of effects. I don't want fancy effects. I want to crop the film and adjust the play rate. See if I can get these films to play at the right speed.
Any suggestion would be must appreciated. Also if anyone can point me to some cleaning film tips I can really trust.
Thank you for your time
Kimberly
