I appreciate that but my problem is that I don't have sighted
assistance. I need a program that I can listen until I get a
commercial make a cut at the beginning and end of the commercial and
join them together to make a movie all without sighted help. Man I
wish more companies would think about accessibility for their
applications.

Hi Vashaun,
VJ: All I want to do is take a .avi file and cut the commercials
and join the other parts together to make a commercial free movie.
Do you know if I can do this with I Movie?
TK: I believe that you'd first have to convert the .avi file to
a .mov using QuickTime Pro or some other app like FFMPEG. Once it's
a .mov file, you'd be able to import it into iMovie, split the movie
at the beginning and end of commercials, remove the commercial
section between the splits and voila it's done. You can then make a
DVD out of it or out of a couple of them if you so choose. The
editing part of the iMovie process is not accessible though so
you'll need sighted assistance or if you have some vision you may be
able to handle this on your own. Playing partially edited movies,
adding voice-overs and such are doable with VO. I've used iMovie to
do many similar things and it's quite an amazing little tool. FYI,
I do use sighted assistance for these processes as I'm unable to do
them myself.

Hi Vashaun,
You asked: I have finally been able to get my Mac configured to
work with my TIVO with the help of a good list member and friend
using a few hacks and workarounds. Now I want to edit video and
don't know what I should get to do this. Are there any video guys
out there that can advise on this topic?
TK: Have you looked at iMovie that is pre-installed on your Mac?
It's an awesome video editing solution. Parts of it are
accessible but not all. If you're looking for something totally
accessible for this, I'm not sure where you'll find it.
