overwhelmed by all the nero programs! (what to use?)

I just installed nero 6 ultra. I want to capture mini-dv and make dvd's. So far, that has been possible. However, I have no idea of what programs I should be using for what. I went ahead and installed all the programs from the CD. I have the smart start and then if I click the left side, I have 10-12 choices, if not more. Any ideas on what I should be using to make dvd's like floppies for drag and drop and to then be able to burn backups of the data on to a dvd recordable to save money as opposed to rw's.
Is there any reference to help learn what programs I should be using. I ended up trying every program for burning in my attempt to burn 3 gigs of pics from rw to recordable. No program would work.
Any help is appreciated,
Brad

Use VisionExpress to capture and author DVD's,use Recode to shrink(transcode),use Express or Burning Rom to burn.
Here are the updates and guides:

Does that mean Nero will do all that DVDShrink will do?

Recode can't rip an encrypted DVD,you can use DVDDecrypter for that.

DvdShrink "Rip (Encrypted disc), Encode, Shrink and Burn (in conjunction with Nero)" all in one shot. No any other software as I know can do the same thing.
