10/29   I shot quite a few videos at my friend's wedding and now I'd
        like to compile them nicely, with subtitles, music, etc. What's
        a good, powerful, and affordable program I should get to do
        this? I'd like to make MPEG2s and such, for video CD, for
        DVD, etc. Thanks!
        \_ DVDLab.  DVDLab Pro if you really need subtitles, but once you
           realize how much work it is to transcribe dialogue, you might
           not care. --jameslin
           \_ tried it, sucks sucks sucks!!! Get a Mac for photo/video stuff,
              it is much better.

                \_ user interface is awkward. Obviously, you've never used
                   iMovie. You know, Macs come with better (and free)
                   softwares.
                   \_ Whatever.  It still blows away its competition on
                      Windows. --jameslin
        \_ Drink Kool-aid: iMovie + iDVD. If you are a bit fancier
           try FC{X,P} + DVD Studio Pro.
           \_ I really like DVD Studio Pro.  With versions 2 and higher,
              menus are really easy to make, as well.  I've never played
              with iDVD, though, so I don't have much to compare it with.-sax

                \_ uh, yeah, it also costs over $1k
                   \_ If you don't have a mac then iDVD is pretty expensive
                      too.
              \_ Menus are pretty easy to make with iDVD (free if you
                 have a Mac w/ a superdrive or $39 if you buy iLife
                 w/ a student discount). The type of menus are pretty
                 limited but are enough for most non-pros.
