Hello.

I shot a little video with my digital still camera, and the lighting conditions weren't the best. I'd like to be able to brighten it up a bit, but I can't find a piece of software that will help me out. I've tried using the video setting in Quicktime pro, but it doesn't save the adjustments. I've tried iMovie, but it makes if go all weird looking... weird looking, what a description. When I use the brighten and contrast control, I think it is, in the video effects, it seems to over saturated and has this kinda pixelated/artifact effect. The closest I came to what I wanted to do was in quicktime, but like I said, it doesn't save the settings. Is there some sort of little freeware or relatively inexpensive shareware program out there that can help me out?

Thanks.

If I'm not mistaken you can do this in VLM and then save the output as it plays: http://wiki.videolan.org/Change_the_brightness_or_contrast_of_a_video
