That might be just what I'm looking for, the software I've played with(free trial downloads)requires more computer than what I have. All I want to do is edit the DVD vids I take at the field, delete some thumbnails,cut out parts of a clip,merge & rearrange some. Then it would be nice to add in some text and effects to spruce it up. I dont have a DVD -R drive, just DVD player(read only), I dont think I need to burn DVD's to edit a video, just do the editing & convert it to Wmv. file or other computer format. I will check it out.
