[Tfug] Video stuff

[Don Freeman]

Hi all. I am just beginning to explore making DVD's from saved video files.
I was wondering if someone could give me some pointers on the various video
formats and the best (easiest to use with good quality) editing software. My
digitizer will save in AVI, MPEG, and MPEG2 formats and a couple of others
that are less familiar. I basically just want to cut out the commercials and
burn to DVD. Pretty basic stuff.

Any hobbyists out there who'd care to share a few pointers?
