I'll tell you what I have been doing instead. I bought Pinnacles DV
studio, the one with the PCI card, and i also have Roxio 7
videowhatever and windows moviemaker. Between the three of those I
usually get very good results. With Pinnacle, i can take a DVD and
simply import the movie file, which makes it a huge nice quality mpg,
and then i can edit that down into chunks or whatever, with either
Roxio or right in the Pinnacle program. Moviemaker cant import these
mpgs, probly doesnt have support for mpg2 or whatever it is.
Moviemaker gets slagged a lot, but, you can do a lot with it, once you
get your movie into a file format it can read. AVI works well but of
course to rip a movie into AVI, the file gets huge. Sometimes I've
found its better to try and capture bits of an existing movie, rather
than import it, either from VHS tape, or even DVD, thru the capture
card and Pinnacle, and save it in smaller chapters as AVI files. this
seems to help me with out of sync audio problems.
To burn the final product onto DVD I use either Pinnacle or Roxio or
Nero.
I looked at ULead for this one particular job I was given, but after
messing around with what I already had, found out I could do without
it.
