Dave Taylor's Great Adventure

One issue I have been contending with that has delayed me immensely is the fact that while my computer is fast enough to run the video editing software, when I try to create the video file after putting it together, my computer overheats and shuts itself down. It appears I do not have enough CPU to render videos longer that 2 min or so. I tried different methods to fix this. I even went out and bought some compressed air and sprayed out the computer yesterday hoping that it was just dust that was causing it to overheat, but my problem remained. I honestly just don't think my computer was made to handle intense video rendering.

However, I have found a workable, yet time consuming solution that I discovered only today. My computer can handle rendering videos that are about a minute long. I upload these clips to Youtube and then, using their editor, I can recombine them back into one video without losing quality.

Here is the first part of the series that I'm calling "John Wilkes Booth in the Woods":

You should be able to make the video play in HD (if it doesn't automatically) by clicking the gear icon near the bottom of the video and changing the quality to 1080p.

Sadly, this is all I have done so far. Now that I have found a workable solution for my problem, however, I'm hoping the rest of the editing will be smoother.

VERY cool, Dave! I'm always in awe if someone is so skilled in handling all these technical things! I can't word it better than Betty and wholeheartedly agree:
"Absolutely wonderful, Dave! I can't wait to see more....
This is very professionally done - and you are a wonderful speaker!"
