Video Editors

[hkitchen]

Hi All I have registered fraps, so I can capture high resolution videos. Currently recording either in 1280x1024 res. or higher. But I need a video editor to add writings, some effects, music to some parts of video. I was using Virtual Dub for compression or adding music, but I can not add writings by it. Windows Movie Maker.. The resolution it offers are not the ones I want, the highest quality can be in 700x something resolution I guess. So I need a good video editor that could edit the video, and compress. Please share your video editor knowledge. Thanks in advance

I'm using Adobe Premiere, though if you're just starting out.. the Windows Movie Maker is OK too
