Video Editing Packages

[Zorolord]

Hi PPL

I have been trawling the internet for some kind of video software package, that will allow a just a stand user to create a video and burn the finished project to a movie i.e. avi or DVD preferably both and more if possible and it needs to support a MiniDV or DV Camcorder.

I was hoping to try a trial version with the option to buy, as I would be stupid to purchase software to find out that it incompatible.

Currently the user has pinnacle studio version 10.08, however once the user goes to create the disk

He receives the following error "No disk writing device found!"

Due to group policies automatically applied on his computer he cannot be given administrator rights (won't want him to have them anyhow)

Could anyone point me in the right direction. The user is running Windows XP SP3 2GB of ram don't and bulit in graphics card.

Any advise would be greatly appreaciated even just links or other specialist forums.
