I have a sony camcorder which records on to 8cm dvd.

I want to use pinnacle 8 to edit the files but this program will only work with avi or mpeg2 files which will give best quality and what is the best program to convert dvd vob to avi or mpeg2.

As DVD uses mpeg2 I suggest you stick with it.
Avi itself is no codec, it's a "container" for many different audio and video codecs.
