Windows Movie Maker doesn't recognize digital camcorders. You need a program such as Pinncale Studio to do that.

Edit and transfer to DVD

I use Handbrake ( http://handbrake.fr ) to turn the minidvd files into Mpeg4 files. I have a canon dc 220 and I hook it up to my computer with the supplied USB cable. I then copy the files onto my laptop and use Handbrake to convert them to the mpeg4 format.

Hi,
