New to the DVD world here. I've been reading articles and searching forums for a week or two now and am ready to post my own question. Basically I just want to know if my workflow will work. I want DVD's that will play on most standard DVD players. Super duper quality not needed, although noticeably poor quality wont do either. My main stumbling block has been finding a capture software that can transfer .VRO files to .AVI or MPEG2. So here's my workflow:
Video Camera: Panasonic VDR-M70, uses DVD-RAM discs and I don't have a DVD-RAM drive, so movies get to the computer through USB.
Capture: FlaskMpeg, the only software I could find that would convert VRO files. Read some poor reviews but I think those were of older versions.
Editing: not required, does that mean I should encode straight to MPEG2 using FlaskMpeg?
Encoding & Authoring: Sonic MyDvd, looking for anyone with good or bad things to say about it. Seems like a lot of people like TMPGEnc, so I would consider using it if MyDvd is no good.
That's all there is to it right?I know it wont be that easy... so any suggestions you could give would be great! Like are there any settings I should be particularly aware of in any of the programs mentioned? Thanks!

I had a funny feeling that TMPGEnc DVD Author could import VRO ?
If in doubt, Google it. -
Would my workflow be made easier if I just got a dvd drive that is capable of reading DVD-RAM disks and used the DVD Movie Album SE that came with the camera?? My current dvd drive is an ASUS E616P and as far as I can tell cannot read RAM disks. Thanks!
