In my opinion, Windows Movie Maker is a good dvd movie making program for beginners of dvd movie making because it's a piece of free movie making software. However, there are drawbacks, too. First, supported input and output formats are not enough so that compatibility is not so good. You may need another video converter to turn home movie created with this movie making software to the desired format. Second, its transition effects are far away from plenty. As you know, to make wonderful home movie, transition effect play an important role. You need stunning effects to attract audience while movie making.
To be concluded, Windows Movie Maker is very suitable for movie making beginners. But if you want to create professional and more customizable home movie DVD, Wondershare DVD Slideshow Builder is a better choice for dvd movie making, with easy-to-use tabbed step buttons. It comes with more stunning transition and Ken-Burns effects, as well as more choices to output and share your final movie making productions in universal Disc and video formats.
