Default Newbie in need of Software Advice

Hi,

I'm new to all this and want to put together three DVD's of home movie footage onto on DVD with decent editing, a music track and a voiceover track (for my mum and dad's 35th Wedding anniversary). I've got no idea what software to buy and wondered if you guys (and gals) had any suggestions.

Thanks for any replies!

There are so many that can do this that it's difficult to say which one to use.

I know I'd use NeroVision Express 3 for such a project, since it's stable and capable and I have it. The newer version 4.5 may be full of bugs. But even with NVE3 there would be a learning curve and darned little help from the maker. And I'm not offering to make a how-to book for it. (sigh)
