Video Editing Hardware + Software

Well, my "test" DVD from a VHS tape of a program that I taped about 3 Weeks ago (1 hour long, edited down to 5 segments) looks about as Top-Notch as i'd expect from a VHS Tape. ; BUT, it's LIGHT YEARS ahead of the Dazzle P.O.C.  The 720x480(?) resolution is BEAUTIFUL and the sound is good too.

I did have the Pinnacle Studio installed with the Dazzle...but UNinstalled it yesterday before I took the Dazzle back.

Again, what I have now is something called MyDVD and it worked like gangbusters for a first-time VHS-to-DVD "dumping".

Again, if there's something better out there...i'm open for it.  I would like a little more freedom to be able to create different graphics & drag-n-drop stuff with the Menu Screen...but i'm happy (so far) with my purchase.

Just do not install Pinnicale Studio. I hear on clean installs it works. I was hoping Avid would have taken care of the shotty programmers. Maybe v11. Friend has it and I have seen same comments online and in reviews. Thing is he makes independent movies and that is the closest to to top without paying a grand and too hard to use.

I'm not sure...(this is why I ask things)

But...so far, the reviews that i've seen and the quality of the video that I did see, were EXCELLENT.

I'm just wondering if there's a better software package that might fit better...

Does anybody know how that's actually calculated? For most software,
it seems completely arbitrary--more a took to get people to upgrade
their systems to get the latest and greatest software that would run
on the existing hardware.

For instance, MS Office doesn't need much, it'll run as well as any
other software on a slow system; it won't run at desirable levels,
but it'll work.

Video editing software won't quite run on a 400mhz (crawl, maybe) but
I'm guessing that 1.0 vs 1.4 won't make a difference at all. Of
course, don't go buying it based on my guess--I have been wrong once
or twice (but not three!).
