How to edit DVD+R copy from DV camcorder?

[hmpua]

Hi! I just bought a DVD recorder to transfer all my home videos from my DV camcorder tapes to DVD+R discs. I am wondering how am I going to use these videos in DVD+R discs to do video editing on my Ulead VideoStudio software in my PC? In Ulead VideoStudio I tried to import video files from these DVD+R disc but it can't recognise as video files. How? Please help! Hope you understand what I am trying to say. Thanks.

If you want to edit, you are much better transferring the video from your Camcorder direct to your PC via firewire. This will be in a DV avi form which VS will be quite happy with. Once you have finished editing you will then need to encode as DVD-complinat mpeg-2, author and burn to DVD.

Copy it to HD.

I transfer to DVD+R because it is faster and save me a lot of HD space. Then I can slowly edit my video one by one. Any suggestion to do it this way? ie. 1st-Transfer my video to DVD+R using DVD recorder (This is to free out my DV tape). 2nd-Import the video out from DVD+R discs to Ulead Video Studio? 3rd- Edit them in Ulead Video Studio. 4th-The final movie then burn into DVD again. Thanks.

by transferring from cam to pc via firewire, you're still "freeing up your dv tapes"? and if you only do one movie at a time, roughlt 13 gigs for an hour of dv, you can delete that when done editing to free up hdd space. seems like a bigger hdd would have save you some money compared to a dvr.
