Actually my objective , is to take my Hi 8 family movies from the past, and edit them onto DVD's. I understand that there is software( some quite expensive software) and cheaper ones like Dazzle, but the results are less than acceptable.
Pinnacle gives me a mirror image of what I filmed with my Sony TV900, . The Hi 8 camera was a Canon A1 digital (movie camera) so the results were the best at the time.
I thought I would buy a DVD recorder, make DVDs then somehow download them to my computer and edit them using Pinnacle.I have not had any luck copying the files the my DVD folder , then opening them with Pinnacle . I have Sonic and Moviemaker also. The DVD's i've been burning are DVD+R. How do I do it , and get great results?
Thanks,
Richard
