A trial for AIST MovieDV is available, but only at the German website. You can download it with clicking at the red "hier". The installation will start in German either, but you can select the language during installation.

The Company AIST doesn't sell editing software any longer, so MovieXOne Plus and MovieDV aren't available at all.

Thank you so freaking much. Saved me a whole lot of head ache when helping out a friend find the stuff. If I could repay you for this I would.

NeroVision Express is for DVD creation, as far as I can tell. And it's extremely limited in what it can do, since it's free.
