Thanks to I have a miniDV camcorder (Canon ZR90, fwiw) – for $10 I picked up a 1394 card and cable (yeah, my machines are too old
and I can use either the Ulead VideoStudio 5.0 that the card came with to get mpeg-1 (which would be fine for a vcd/svcd) or Windows Movie Maker in XP to get wmv, but neither really give end-to-end for the DV-AVI (or whatever) coming from the camera to dvd (mpeg-2, vob, etc.) burning
I’ve gotten co-worker recommendations for TMPG-Enc, but I want to hear other recommendations as well
