DVD files

[DaveOC]

Hi
I'm having my Video8 tapes put onto DVD, I would like to be able to edit them so that I can then burn to another disc and then play on a standard DVD player.
Could you tell me what file format would be best , one place say's it will be a VOB file, another say's WMV file and another say's AVI. Which would be best ? I'm using Windows vista home. Any tips on how to do this would be much appreciated.

I think AVI takes less space, you can convert from any to any.
You can edit cut join.
Use the following link..I do all the above. Always use free software.

One simple solution is to plug a Digital-8 camera into the DV socket of a DVD recorder. Digital-8 is backwards compatible with Video-8 and Hi-8.
