I'm just getting started capturing video and burning to DVD. Currently, my goal is to simply capture my old VHS tapes and make simple (but with menus) DVDs. I have a Pinnacle PCTV capture card and a Sony DRU-120A DVD burner. I'm using Ulead's DVD MovieFactory 2. My system is an AMD Athlon 2000+ XP with 256 MB or RAM running Windows XP Pro.
I've been able to capture successfully and burn to DVDs. However, when I capture with DMF2 and then split or clip from either end, DMF2 reencodes the video. I don't want to do anything REALLY fancy but I'd like to be able to set the start and end points without having to reencode.
I can capture using VirtualVCR with Huffyuv but DMF2 doesn't accept that as input and it takes SOOOO much disk space (getting cheaper all the time).
Is there a "good enough for VHS" video editor that will let me set start and end points without having to reencode?
