Alright, my dad just bought one of those new DVD camera recorders. He also bought a nice new computer with DVD RW and all that other junk. Something I have always wanted to do is make paintball videos. I don't know what is needed to format and add music and put certain clips where so can any of you smart computer guys or girls out there help me out a little? I jsut need the basics of what is needed to start. Thanks all.

ok, first like Moogle said, you are going to need something to edit with. you could either get a program on your computer (ie. Velocity), or you could get an amiga computer editor.(i know this cause my dad owns a video production company) hope this helps!

an easy beginner program (Premier is a bit confusing to people new to this) is Windows Movie Editor it comes free with XP... and i tyhink it only runs on XP... took me 10 minutes to master.
