I've got three words for you: Final Cut Pro.


Thats a tad overkill for a home movie editing and burning session, unless he was planning on adding some high end special effects and screening the movie in a theater :-)


To be honest, Final Cut Express has pretty much all of those features anyway. In a nutshell the difference between Express and Pro is: Batch Capture, 3 way colour correction, Script Editor and support for resolutions/formats other than DV/HDV.

It's a shame you can't get Pro on its own now, it's bundled into Studio so you end up with Motion, Soundtrack, DVD Studio Pro and Compressor, which is great if you're setting yourself up as a production house, but if all you want is batch capture it's a significant jump up from £150.
