What you're planning to do is create a new Muvee! (video/Audio editing..)
1st Part: transfer video files from vcam to computer
i.e., using a program to receive the video stream from vcam into the PC and saving it in the PC as a video file.
1. if from tape…connect vcam to computer via firewire cable (4 or 6 pin) for good transfer (USB may drop frames)
… open (free w/XP) Windows Movie Maker in computer (for starters). **see/click WMMaker help ...it is very detailed.
2. if from memory card… connect vcam to computer via firewire cable; create a sub-directory in your pc and transfer files from vcam to project directory
1. from tape:
a. Set the camera mode to play recorded video.
b. In the Movie Maker Tasks pane/Capture Video, click Capture from video device.
c. the video files from vcam will then be put into WMM collection (usually there are several video files from vcam although you will not notice on vcam playback.
d. drag & drop video files one by one from collection to video chart below noting proper number sequence (Note: if no editing is to be done, drag all collection files to one video chart)
e. save the video files (WMAv) one by one
(Note: if no editing is to be done, save WMAv file as one)
...Transfer of the video files is now complete
2nd part: video editing
for starters, XP/Windows Movie Maker would provide the easy way to learn the process. SpiceFx by Pixelan would provide enhanced effects. You may venture to other video editting softwares - Ulead, Adobe Premiere, Pinnacle, etc. with Hollywood effects after learning the editing tricks thru WMMaker.
a. Open WMMaker (steps similar to 1st- from tape)
b. In the task pane, import your previously saved video files into another WMM collection sub-folder. If video files are not recognized by WMMaker, convert to AVI or WMAv.
Also import your desired audio/music files or recorded narration in another WMM collection sub-folder
c. Edit 1 your video - ' Make your muvee' thru mouse drag & drop technique.. video file to to the video chart below (video/audio)- take note of proper video sequence. Also drag & drop audio/music files to aud/music chart below. The audio from video file and from music files can be adjusted the way you like (mute if you want to) thru setting audio levels icon between video & music.
d. Edit 2 - Can also enhance the muvee thru video effects (zoom/pan - for greater degree, buy Hollywood/Spice FX), transitions, tiltles, credits like a muvee.
3rd part: finish the Movie (thru WMMaker)
Usually save files to computer first for review of the project. You can always go back to edit the project if you want to add or change anything. The saved MMK file is in WMAv.
Finally …Burning to DVD
First off, you'll need an authoring program like Windows DVD, Nero vision or Encore DVD. Import the video, make your menus and stuff, and then when exporting, select standard quality (4 Mb/s - 6 Mb/s). Yes, higher quality SHOULD give you better results, but they aren't that noticeable and most DVD players will either mess up or not accept higher quality DVDs at all. Also, make sure you are burning on DVD-R discs, as they are the most compatible. Once you click burn, it will automatically convert your .AVI files into mpeg-2 .vobs. Hope this helps!

Once you have the file in your PC, use your DVD recorder (burner) application (i.g.; Ulead). The application software tells you what to do, but this is the procedure. Run sw, call the file, edit it, put blank DVD in your drive, convert the file to DVD (or MP3), burn to DVD. Depending on the size, it may take 20 minutes to 2 hours to convert and burn. Add audio during edit.

Just google Youtube Downloader. They all down load the movies as .flac records I feel, however they've a developed in converter which you employ to transform them to .mpeg4 or some thing.
