Don't they burn straight to DVD?
If so, you'll need DVD "ripping" software to get it on the PC. Surprised that the camera wouldn't come with it.

i think my brother has one that burns directly to a mini dvd. he is able to pull video onto the computer with a USB cable using the software that came with the 'corder. i don't know what brand he has tho.

i think my dad has a hitachi. IIRC you can just connect the USB cable or rip it directly off the dvd.
and were geeks not nerds, there is a difference

They can't help it....that's just a normal thing for most CD/DVD formats. Lots of times information can't be read if the disc isn't finalized.
