Hi,

I need to get a program that will allow me to download from my DV cam to my PC. I have been using Windows Movie Maker these past few days...its okay not bad...its like really compact.

I'm looking for somthing that will download my videos from my DV cam at a okay quality and then output it to a DVD with atleast not much loss.

Also It would be great if it had someway to put "Title's and Endings" in the finished video, with some transitions.

So is there any free program that can do this?

I tried Virtual Dub but does not have what i need.

Please i need all the help i can get here.

VirtualDub will let you capture and even edit. That's most of what you need already. I'm not sure what will let you convert to mpeg2 for free though. 30 day TMPGEnc Trial maybe?

I thought the updated Movie Maker 2 let you burn your movies to DVD. Or is that only if you have MCE05 + sonicencoders?
