Pinnacle Studio 7 doesn't support QT. You'll have to convert your video to avi, mpeg1, or mpeg2. Preferably, I'd ditch Pinnacle Studio 7 and replace it with Ulead Video Studio 7 or Ulead DVD...

Huh? There are many pc laptops which are xga-only. I have an HP 15" with an xga screen (1024x768) and is more similar in function to an iBook screen.

This is the wrong forum for such questions. You should ask the question at a pc forum or something (Ars Technica or digitalvideoediting.com).

I agree that the Mac would be the best for DVD with DVDSP2. But if you decide to get serious on the pc side anyway, get a ~$5000.00 loan (for both the pc and VT3) and and buy this. It's basically a...

Another alternative is to buy a DVD player that can play raw mpeg2 files. My 7-year old has a Daewoo dvd player that can play mp3's. It allows you to navigate the cd to find the folder the mp3's are...

If saving to tape, MiniDV is much better. But MicroMV could be useful when making dvd or svcd because it's already in mpeg2 format. The conversion should be minimal. With MiniDV, you'd have to...
