I prefer Windows Movie Maker and i like that you can also save your movie back to the video tape in your camera to play back on a TV or on the camera itself. I get it from here: rosoftdownload.com/download/Windows/Windows-Movie-Maker

I’d recommend ABC VideoRoll. It’s a freeware video editor that does a pretty nice job in non-linear video editing. The developers vanished from the face of the earth, but Googling for it should lead you to a download site. The only con is that it doesn’t support WMV. But who needs WMV support if you can import and export to MP4 directly without much fuss?

WMV is the absolute worst file format for stand-alone video. It is based on MP4 and ‘optimized’ for streaming content by apparently removing key frames. The lack of key frames makes searching nearly impossible. Saves on file size, certainly, but a poor user experience. WMM uses only WMV formats, not AVI or MPG. A pox on Microsoft for forcing a poor choice on home users. I suppose you get what you paid for.

I bought Roxio easy media creator deluxe 9.1. Lots of features, but for about the same price you can get Adobe elements, which will do much the same, but is a lot more stable. Sure wish I’d found that out in time.
