Default Video Editing Program ?

Hello,

I realize that this is an audio group, but I imagine that you folks also
know all about video editing, etc.

If not too appropriate to post here, please point me to the correct
Newsgroup. I couldn't find any.

Sr. Citizen now, so please bear with me a bit.
Not very sharp with this "stuff".

a. Have a JVC Camcorder.
Took a long video of Grandkids, and Uploaded to PC.
Used Windows Live Movie Maker to make a Video.

Took "forever" for the PC (relatively new) to do it, but came out just fine.

I would like to put this on some DVD's for the kids.
About 15 GB or so, so will take about 4 DVD's, I guess.

Problem is I can't seem to find a way of doing it.
Every program I've tried including the built in Burning ones in
Windows 7 that came with the PC come back with a msg. that it takes more
than one DVD, and therefore they can't do it.

Isn't there some, hopefully free, program that will simply tell you to
insert another DVD when the first one is empty ?

Would gladly accept a limitation that the created DVD's must be played on
a PC, and not on a DVD player, if that's required for some reason.

Any thoughts on how I can do this ?

b. Other than Windows Live Movie Maker, might anyone recommend a "good",
hopefully free, video editing program ? Would have to be really "simple"
and straightforward to use ? Similar to Windows Live Movie Maker, but
perhaps one that works faster, etc.

c. What's the difference between Windows Live Movie maker and
Windows Movie Maker ?
Is one a newer version of the other, or...?

Thanks,
Bob


Long video ? How long ? Why would you do more than one hour at a time.
what kind of video ?
