I'm looking for your recommendations for good Editing/Cutting and Joinng tools.

I am trying to do a couple of things. First am capturing TV from ATI IAW, and would like to edit out commericals. Second I would like to edit captured VHS tapes. In both cases I plan to copy captured/edited files to CD-R in VCD/SVCD format. In the future I would like to edit DV tapes from video camera and copy to VCD/SVCD.

I'm running XP and plan to to burn CDs with Nero 5.5.

Any ideas?

Thanks
