I use Adobe Premiere 6.0. Works great with both my DV card and my analoge card. However, I guess this is a bit beyond basic home video editing... The program I started editing with was Ulead Video Studio 3.0. I don't know anything about the newer versions, but this is a great program to start with...

Also, do you plan to export your videos to VHS, or just make VCDs and such? I don't know if Ulead has the capability of exporting through DV, much less even using it. But, my version is pretty old...
