Video editing software

[kwack]

Well,

After not using Movistar 5 for some time, it has now started playing funny games.

It will capture video but when I try to create a title and drag and drop into teh storyboard the PC crashes.

I have tried finding patches, reinstalling etc but still the same.

Does anyone know of a patch I can download.

Alternativelty what about other software. What I am afteris something wuite simple to use which will allow me to capture video from DV, edit add effects etc and then allow me to create a DVD as well.

Cheers

Kwack

Don't use Moviestar. It's terrible.
Try Ulead VS7. It's cheap, simple and does what you want.
Another to try is Pinnacle Studio. I don't use it but I know many do.
It seems more bugs exist in pinnacle, but version 9 may be better.

Adobe premiere is fairly good: I have been using it for a while. It's fairly good.

I'm looking into pinnacle liquid edition 5 right now though. It's supposed to be a bit better than premiere.I guess I'll know soon enough.

Although, these do not have DVDauthoring capabilities

If you have windows XP you should try Movie Maker 2 (MM 1 comes with XP, MM2 is downloadable from the windows site and is free). I find it great for capturing and editing, titles, audio pictures, transitions, all are very easy. Save to computer as AVI and burn with MyDVD v5.2.
