Or you could ask your good friend Ferdinand (thats me by the way :P) to upload his copy of Nero onto his servers for you ;)

But I only do that strictly on a 'need not want' basis so PM me if you would like it.

Here is a good free converter

The problem you might have though is that the recorded DVD needs to be finalised by your philips recorder before it can be played by a PC.

Once finalised you can stick it in the PC and with the software above convert it as needed.

I use a program called convert x to dvd. This is great for sorting out all the issues surrounding camcorders and their different file extension types. Run a search for it on the net and you'll find it easily. Also lets you name chapters extra just like on all dvd menus.
Hope this helps Atb
