Hello!
My wife has a metric ton (just kidding) of 8 mm video she had converted to digital video. She’s now working through the footage making discs for various family members. For example, she’s making a disc of all the footage of her sister Betsy. The effort is not to alter the raw footage but to copy-then-paste snippets from various AVI files into one video file (final file format is probably not terribly important).
Currently she’s using Power Director. It can best be described as “OK”. Can anyone recommend something better for this sort of work?
