| 171776 | 2003-08-30 21:53:00 | Morning all. I wish to convert my old VHS Pal home movies into VCD and ran into the video/audi sync problem mentioned in this post (pressf1.pcworld.co.nz) I want to know if I can get an overseas NTSC Sony TRV33 / TRV80 MiniDV videocam to do the job (ie hook the PAL vhs to the NTSC videocam and the later to my pc via composite RCA cables)? P4 2.8 1GB ram 120GB hdd GE4 Ti4200 Cyberlink PowerDirector Pro Nero 5 ==== For a while there, I thought I was watching an NFL rather than an NPC game last Friday LOL |

| 171777 | 2003-08-31 01:00:00 | what are you useing to capture the video and what format/codecs are you useing before trying to convert it to vcd? | tweak'e (174) | ||
| 171778 | 2003-08-31 03:11:00 | I'm using Amcap which came with the video card (vivo). Not sure about the codecs; the video is being saved into mpeg1. PowerDirector Pro v2.5 mentions something about Smart Video Rendering Technology (SVRT) which I take is its proprietary codec? Anyway, I've managed to create a VCD from a PAL vhs by hooking up my vcr into the video card sockets at the back of the PC but as I said, there was a sync prob. If I got a local dv cam, it would solve the prob but am thinking of getting a NTSC version overseas which I can get much cheaper. Thanks T |
