Okay so I'm not exactly big on video editing. I've used virtualdub a few times here and there to do some simple splicing, but that's the extent of my experience. No fades, title screens, menus, etc.
I just converted a bunch of home videos (VHS, 8mm cassettes, and MiniDV) to DVD. We kind of hit dub and walked away, so there's a bunch of dead space. I'm looking at a stack of roughly 25 single-layer DVDs with video.
If there's a guide for what I'm trying to do, please point me in the right direction...
I'm trying to rip all of the DVDs in their regular format to my harddrive. Then I want to do some splicing (some of the videos span multiple DVDs) and organize all the clips into a menu that makes sense. What am I looking for? Are there open-source/freeware applications that can do this? I have access to a Mac if the iLife suite is a good way of doing things, but I'd like to work in a windows environment. (The Macbook doesn't have the harddrive capacity to handle this.)
