    Video editing software

    Up until recently I used VideoStudio SE to edit my videos, as this is what came with the Sony DV camera. When I upgraded to Vista I found VideoStudio won't run in Vista, so at the mo I'm stuck with MS MovieMaker, which is fine if all you want to do is basic editing.

    So, what video editing software do you use, and more importantly, recommend?

    I'm not after winning an Oscar but the ability to dub music/commentary, slow and speed up video, basic transitions and effects would be nice.

    Cheers.

    I take it you haven't upgraded to Leopard yet the. If you're using iMovie HD it wont run on Leopard, you'll have to move to iLife 08 and believe me that is a major disappointment! Instead you'll need Final Cut Elements, at nearly twice the price of iLife 08

    I reckon Ulead is hard to beat in both simplicity and functionality. Don't be put off by the Corel label, it is cheap and good. If want you can even do production level stuff with it. It comes with DVD editing software too.

    Thanks Alan. I also have an older version of Ulead which I have used but again it doesn't run on Vista.

    I agree. I use Premiere Pro and it is very good.
    If you just want something that is easy to use, then Ulead Video Studio works well. As stated though, you have to upgrade to run it on Vista.

    My Wife and I use Video Studio 11plus.

    We Have done some great videos of our trips with it. Has some good special effects and is reasonably simple to use. It also has a great online forum if you need help, which we have used many times.

    Don't know how it goes with Vista but the box says its compatible.

    Good Luck

    Stu

    P.S. Beware the dreaded file format issue, an avi is not just an avi.
