I am a beginner and I would just like to get the hang of copying frames from movies and posting them on these forums. Right now I have CyberpowerDVD trial version. I am reluctant to buy it because it is $60 and I want to find out which is the best DVD software for beginners before I buy one. My OS is Windows XP Media center 2005 Edition but the DVD software that comes with it needs a DVD decoder, I don't understand why it didn't come with one and it seems like BS to me. I have a photobucket account. So what DVD software do you recommend for beginners?
Once I get proficient, I want to set up a raid array with two hard drives in the raid 1 for protection of my pictures etc. But I think you have to start with a fresh windows install if you want to do that. Right now I am using a hard drive that will be used as a backup and I'm hoping whatever I download on this hard drive I can bridge to my raid array once I get it going.
