I meant to post earlier that I was able to resolve my issues regarding editing of HDV video. I still don't know why the problem occurred, but I have a fix. After several calls and chat sessions with the Windows Vista SP1 Support group I found that loading the FFDShow codec fixed the problem. I can again see my HDV video (in dvr-ms format) and can edit it in Movie Maker.
Something about the steps still leaves a weird taste in my mouth because this did work before SP1, and the MPEG-2 codec and corresponding filters should have worked after the SP1 upgrade. Why I had to load some 3rd-party codecs for this scenario is still a little puzzling.
If I get a chance, I might restore the image from my Windows Home Server just before the SP1 upgrade and try it again... or I might just leave it alone. If it ain't broke, don't fix it... right?

Blaine Thanxx for the letterboxes, black spots,etc.
I made a truly most disturbing horror short "ode to" video.(that was rejected for extreme subject matter, thank you very much!)
but the problem I have is this:
I downloaded and only some work.
Half said I need a codec to support this (I have vista basic, 64x2a,w/plenty of extra space)
I don't know what codec they are talking about?
I updated, looked around...i found a 9 something, but they said it wasn't for this system?
Can you tell me what codec they mean?
Also: Idea...an effect of "And Introducing" or "Starring" and a circle or opening bars or something to insert a pic so you can put it in the beginning credits?
The opening circle one we get is lame.
And a keyhole view that goes in, not out, or a melting screen and melting text, like wax or blood.
There really is no scary effects or transitions?
