Downloading HD Video

I have a Canon HF-10. The Pixela software that came with the camera is a real pain and inconsistent to use. I am wondering if I can record directly to a burner, such as a Sony VRD MC6, and still get a HD product. Or, any suggestions on how to burn hd movies to a computer using the Pixela software.

I did some googling and it looks like the HF10's native format is AVCHD, which the VRD-MC6 supports. According to this, the VRD-MC6 can store up to 95 minutes of HD video on a standard DVD:

Otherwise you could copy the AVCHD files to your computer and edit it with software like Cyberlink PowerDirector, Ulead Video Studio, Pinnacle Studio or one of the many TMPGEnc programs.
