I have a lot of video tapes which I'd like to transfer to digital media. And then to edit down to viewable 'episodes' etc.

So I'm looking at 2 things:

1) Video capture hardware - reasonable quality/speed, but on a very tight budget, so looking at a good price/performance compromise here.

2) Video editing software - not sure what I want here. Must obviously allow me to cut/splice, but I'd also love to have some blue/green screen capability and anything that helps put title screens etc. together. Well - I think that's what I want.

So I'm hoping that some of you out there have a good handle on this and maybe can guide me. Thanks.
