Howdy.

Ok, im attempting to put together a little video, however itd be pretty boring without a fitting soundtrack.
Video editing software i have is Intervideo windvd, or i could use Sony picture package.
Whats available (preferably freeware/shareware) for audio editing.
I have a number of mp3's that i could use for the soundtrack...but whatd be the easiest to use (not puter literate ya see!!) and would allow me to arrange it by cutting and looping?

Any help gratefully accepted.

Most modern video editing software have a facility for soundtracks. Even the linear stuff. Most will also allow you to directly import MP3 and WMA files as "assets" to use in your production. The trick is to find a point in the soundtrack (MP3/WMA asset) that lends itsself to a "fade out" then "fade in" for looping or just a simple stop start for looping.

Best advice is to get your soundtrack the way that you like it and then recut your video to match the music (with fades, effects, etc).

HTH
