Be able to use this as a real DVD creator

I started using this with some hopes. They were quickly dashed when I found out it has almost no editing capacity. It has a crude and hard to use function to trim the length of the video down but you can't cut out parts you don't want in the finished DVD. Also, like most of these, the tools to select the start and end points are almost unusable. You need to be able to cut to a frame, and even add a little fade-in or fade-out to black. A Windows edit box with hours;minutes;seconds;frames is essential.

I'd like to see a simple design with a small Arduino (Lilypad maybe?) that connects a rotary encoder to USB so you can rock back and forth to the exact spot for a cut. This could be an optional hardware add-on. Clicking a mouse endlessly gets tiring quickly.

I won't be using this. I'm still using the old Total Media Extreme although it's only partly useful at this point. Somewhere out there there must be a good tool.

It would be nice as well if you could design web pages with an HTML editor and use those (converted) as the screens for the video such as the title screen and the episode screens etc. That would be a lot better than the ones supplied by these tools which are often inappropriate for the video you are making. "My Beach Holiday" doesn't suit a video on murders.
