If it's CDR then it depends on how many CDs you want to end up with. I find that the maximum number of CDs I'm willing to put up with for each file is two. That gives me a total file size of about 1.2GB - 1.3GB which I then split and burn. As SVCD I find the quality/sound is good ... well, good enough. |

| 230724 | 2004-04-20 23:26:00 | Hi I do not know all the tech terms but I connected the audio out of the VCR to the mic in on my computer. Using an adaptor I pluged the video out on the VCR to the many pronged hole ('S' or composite hole?) on my video card. I used ulead video studeo 7 to capture both audio and video together. I got the adaptors from dick smith. |

| 230725 | 2004-04-20 23:27:00 | Takes as long as the VCR video runs | kiwitwat (4646) | ||
| 230726 | 2004-04-21 00:05:00 | Sorry about all the questions, but what video card have you got? | karent (5222) | ||
| 230727 | 2004-04-21 00:14:00 | He has a video card with Video-in,many are available but they are more expensive then the base models. Personally i use a tv capture card as then i can keep the ability to capture vhs even when i have changed video cards. |

Are you sure you have it set to DVD within Nero,svcd and vcd are cd formats so you can't use those to author a dvd.The files need to be broken encoded into audio_vob and video_vob in order to auther a working DVD.Nero by default is unable to do this(i think). What you may need is specif dvd authoering software,Sonic DVD ships with quite a few dvd drives,ulead has a number of programs that do it,working time limited demo's of ulead programs are available. |
