Thanks for the post Mike, I looked at MSWMM yesterday and edited a .wmv file I had converted with AVS software. It was on a DVD mini-disk from my cam-corder. Now I know how to do it, first I record onto DVD, then run AVS to convert the video from a .vob or .vro file to .wmv computer file, then use Movie Maker to edit-I ran the Auto-edit just to see, it works well, now I have to learn how to do custom editing. I spent $60 on the AVS software which also gives you access to video editing sftware in addition to digital media conversion.
