My computer is a VAIO Digital Studio PC using XP.  My system easily handles Pinnacle Studio 10, but apparently that software doesn't do the job I need. I really want to know what software will allow me to take my DVDs and add titles, edit, and rearrange the content.

I use Ulead Video Studio it is pretty user friendly so It is easy to use.  It comes with some effects and is fairly cheap. It even comes with catchy music to add to your movies.

I work with Premiere and Final Cut Pro.\n\nFor what you want to do either will work equally well. I personally like final cut pro a little better than premiere (Though I have not used premiere pro 2 yet, so I can't say that completely.)\n\nI believe that you will find that PC's are cheaper than Macs, but that is sort of an illusion. Macs have quite a few software items included that you will have to purchase seperately in a PC.\n\nIn either case you will need a good photo editor (I like Photoshop.) and either after effects or motion 2 (If you go with the mac and have the budget I would recomend both options.) In the end you are going to spend quite a bit on that type of set up, and you might look at avid as an option. It has come down in price and is comparible to either of the other systems in price. Since you already know the interface then you might want to stay with it. (They also took over the pinnacle liquid software, and that might also be a good option for you. It lists at $1000 with a breakout box and has some impressive specs, but I am not familiar with it myself.)\n\nHope that helps,\nTony

I am in the middle of such a project at the moment. All the editing software basically works the same way. I have tried a bunch of programs and found that Nero 7 Premium is the best for me, but it still isn't easy (time consuming going thru frame by frame) Nero will actually edit the .VOB files whereas other ones won't.

Ulead DVD Studio easiest\nAdobe Premiere best

I don't know if it's "the best" but it's definitely easy to use and offers more than just the basics. It's Windows Movie Maker which comes with Windows XP. Allows you to import clips, including importing footage from a camcorder etc. There's a wide variety of output options in terms of quality, and actually editing and mixing your video is easy. Dozens of transitions, fades, brightness filters, effects, volume adjustments etc. and you can add in music of your own as well. I use it all the time to edit my digital camera movie clips as well as ones I take with my Sony Handycam.\n\nP.S. - The latest update (2.1) offers DVD burning capabilities - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/updates/moviemaker2.mspx

You can copy and paste in Quicktime Pro.  Iti'll work fine unless the movies have different frame sizes at which point the smaller movie will not fill the "canvas".  QT Pro is $30, but it's worth it, for me at least.  AV out of sync is common with DV.  I always use my Canopus D/A converter to sync the audio and video on capture.

Here is a list of software you can use\n\nApple iDVD 2\nDVD authoring suite for Mac OS X\nhttp://www.creativemac.com/2002/03_mar/reviews/idvd2a020311.htm\n\n\nSizzle is designed a tool for Mac OS X 10.2 and later that helps in the creation of reasonably basic, no-frills DVD Video discs.\n\nSizzle takes MPEG-2 video and combines it with either MPEG Layer-II ("MP2") or Dolby Digital ("AC3") audio to create a disc image that can be burned to a recordable DVD or CD with a program like Disc Copy or Roxio Toast.\nhttp://mac.softpedia.com/get/Video/Sizzle-b.shtml#\n\n\n\nWhy rent someone else’s masterpiece when you can create your own? From Hollywood-style home movies to multimedia wedding albums to professional slideshow portfolios, iDVD 6 helps you put it all on DVD. And no ordinary DVD, mind you. A jaw-dropping widescreen DVD with coordinated menus and ambient audio\nhttp://www.apple.com/ilife/idvd/\nhttp://www.creativemac.com/2002/03_mar/reviews/idvd2a020311.htm

I've used muVee for making quick slide shows and it is really easy to use for that.  You just give it a group of photos, select a music track, pick a style and it creates a cool movie in a couple minutes.  I haven't used it for video though.\n\nAdobe is filled with all sorts of features but I find it much harder to use.  It's also relatively expensive.  The entry level Adobe After Effects is a little more affordable and might be a good choice.\n\nI bought Pinnacle Studio 9 and was not impressed.  It was hard to use, most of the cool features were 'locked' and required an additional upgrade, etc.\n\nWhat I use most often is Windows Movie Maker.  It's free (or more accurately, included with Windows XP) and is very easy to use.  It has lots of titles and effects and transitions you can use, and you can also add more.  There are a couple of free downloads on www.microsoft.com for the 'Winter Fun Pack' and the 'Creativity Fun Pack'.  Also, if you look at the Windows Movie Makers forums (www.windowsmoviemakers.net), they have lots of users that have created custom effects, titles and effects.\n\nI think if you start using WMM, you'll get hooked.  Plus it is a good way to start without investing any money.  If you find you need more features, then you can consider purchasing another package.

The best software is Avid. Of course, their upper range systems are probably out of your price range, but ExpressPro is very affordable. Check it out at http://www.avid.com/products/xpresspro/index.asp

If this is a one time thing, you can look for a local camera/film store to help you transfer your video to DVD.  It cost anywhere from $10 - $25.\n\nIf you need to convert often, use a USB video converter.  The cost from $70 to over $300 for DV converters.  Take a look at Studio 500-USB version 10 by Pinnacle Systems.  It comes complete with editing software.\n\nIf you feel comfortable openning your PC, the PCI option gives you a cleaner look.  Check out Studio 500-PCI version 10.\n\nGood luck and have a nice day.\n\nhttp://www.pinnaclesys.com/PublicSite/us/Products/Consumer+Products/Products+List.htm
