Lightening Underexposed Videos

I have some digital camera videos on my computer that are slightly underexposed. I would like to lighten them up via software, either before or during the process to put them onto a DVD.

Can anyone suggest what I should use?

Thanks,

Tosh

PaintShop Pro springs immediately to mind. Doubtless others.

If your camera's video format is compatible with Movie Maker 2.1 (free in Windows XP SP2, deja view strikes again), one of the many video processing options is Increase Brightness.
