I am not a kind of person who runs video maker company or anything related to video editing, but sometimes I do that in my spare times. Usually I use movie maker application that already available on Windows XP operating system. But this program only able to edit certain video format such as AVI. Since my Handycam’s output is DVD format, it needs to be converted first to the supported format.
Talking about video conversion, the Blaze Media Pro is one of the good alternatives to convert DVD to AVI, MPG, WMV. And I always back up my creativities to CD or DVD optic. Windows XP actually can do this by default but its feature is very basic. Special CD burning software or DVD burning software such as Blaze Media Pro offers more than standard features.
