The Camera i have is a panasonic palmcorder VDR-D210 miniDV Digital camera. even when i finalize it my laptop wont read it, and since i cant Save or Copy a video when i save it to DVD i dont no how i can edit it. can someone who might have had this camera or no how to work them give me some pointers. P.S. is windows Movie maker good enough to edit DVD videos or should i download something better. as you can see im very new to stunt films.

Otherwise you can't edit much of anything. Eric Jacobus The Stunt People

Look around in the options and settings of whatever program you're using. How do you connect your camera to your computer? Firewire, USB, AV cables?

I use mini-DVD as well as I have a Sony Handycam, what I normally do is to save the footage as a standard DVD disc. Then Ulead VideoStudio allows me to import footage straight from the disc to edit (I'd imagine most editing programs would let you do this). If your software doesn't let you do this, do a search for Freez DVD Ripper. This will allow you to rip your DVD to AVI or MPEG files which you will definitely be able to edit, and it's freeeeee ~Mike Reckless Ninja Squad (my stunt team) - http://ninjasquad.wayofthesocky.co.uk Way of the Socky (kung fu movie reviews) - http://www.wayofthesocky.co.uk
