got my parents brand new digital 8mm sony video camera for the weekend... its a dcr-trv260 with nightshot and the works...

the software that comes with it is pitful

what free or hacked software is everyone else using for importing and slight editing

im not gonna go buy software just for the weekend ya know

I like Adobe Premiere. I'm just used to it. It can get on your nerves though.

ive used it...but a lil to much for just the weekend...

any easier programs?

How bout the Windows Movie Maker?

looked into it...


windows movie maker 2.1 requires to be installed

i have on my laptop, and im not liking it. having reboot problems, along with a lot of other ppl out there...

i havnt put it on my desktop yet, which has the firewire port on it...so can do...

any other options

Vegas.. kicks *** for me. Made by sonic foundry

I had movie maker 2 before the service pac upgrade, they have changed the requirements since then though?

I have a ulead program but movie maker is much easier to use and the results are better.

could you send me that as the only available version for download is 2.1 now

I've been cruising there tutorials and they have a link to M2
