If you notice a significant amount of crackling
• That can be from:• Poorly seated microphone &/or connector to video camera
• Interference from adjacent computer &/or large monitors
• Interference from plugs (if plugged in, make sure all in same wall assembly)
• Interference from overhead neon lights
• Solar wind (seriously, magnetic field upsets when northern lights reported)
• Like anything electrical, may be intermittent &/or hard to repeat
• Can almost be cleared with free & easy-to-use video editing software
Download Videolan (no need for donation)

Settings are effectively a filter
• Select ‘Enable’ and ‘2 Pass’ and mimic settings in previous slide
• Play with the settings that eliminate most of the crackling
• You’ll never eliminate it, best you can get is a low level humming
• But that’ll allow video to be heard with no perceptible interference
• You succeeded if reviewer comments on the video not the audio
• Or you can save it locally and write it to disc later on
• choose DVD+R DL dual layer writable DVD to ensure fit on one disc• Make sure Windows writes it to disc, verify before ejecting disc
Add a blank DVD and write video to it
