Most people (myself included) just dump the whole tape onto the drive and do all processing (cut, edit, join, etc.) afterwards. This is the recommended technique in pretty much all cases. In that case, dvgrab works pretty well. Here are my scripts to create DVDs out of DV tapes: http://florin.myip.org/soft/conv-dvd/ But if you _must_ use a GUI, I suggest taking a look at Kino - of which dvgrab implements only a fraction of functionality. I use Kino with dvgrab - I just capture everything with dvgrab (because it's simple and lightweight) then any trimming that's necessary is done with Kino. At the end, the DVD script takes care of the conversion to DVD. -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/
