So for my Birthday my girlfriend gave me a Samsung mini-dv camcorder. She went with the bare-bones model which is fine with me as it'll probably see most of its use in the car recording autocross runs. The camcorder came with a firewire port, but no cable or software. I think compusa has decent prices on 1394 cables (looks like both ends are 4-pin), but once I have the cable then what? If I want to tweak around with the video or even compress it I'll need some video editing software right? Anyone with a PC find anything they like?

Wow, cool I had no idea there was a Windows utility for that built in. My girlfriend's laptop has a firewire port built in (and XP) so I don't need a card unless I wanna hook it up to my desktop. Someone at work said they liked Pinnacle, too. Have to check it out.
