Answer 3

Windows Movie Maker is now really long in the tooth (a bit like Microsoft's operating systems in fact) and can only really handle clips coming from MiniDV tape cams. Have a go at downloading Pinnacle's free (yes, free) Videospin which is great for newbies and easy to use.

Answer 4

Your computer came with a free vide editing program.

Windows Movie Maker comes with Windows and is a free download from Microsoft.  WMM can handle the most common video editing, titling, and  audio needs, but WMM can only handle standard definition video at this time.  WMM can import most common audio file formats.  If you have a problem with a certain audio file, import it into Windows Media Player, and then import the new imported audio file from WMP into Windows Movie Maker.

iMovie is available in iLife on Apple's Mac computers.  iMovie can handle HD and SD video and has much more capability then WMM.  iMovie links with other Apple software to ensure compatibility of various media formats.  iMovie imports media from iPhoto and iTunes as well as exports movies for burning to DVD in iDVD or to your Movies folder for uploading to the internet.

Both of these programs are designed to capture video from minDV and HDV camcorders via Firewire.  They can also import video from other sources as well, but iMovie is much ore adept at this than WMM.  Other editing programs are also available: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_vid...  

Answer 5

If your computer has Windows than try Movie Maker: it should come with your system.
