| 688161 | 2008-07-12 07:22:00 | Hi there, I'm trying to get video footage off old VHS tapes onto DVD. I've read up on the different options and am just wondering how much success people have had with the different choices? Does anyone have any recommendations for the external video capture devices I've seen about the place (TM/DSE etc)? I'm looking at this option as I don't have alot of space for an internal card in my PC. The other viable alternative is borrowing or buying a Video/DVD combo recorder, does anyone have any comments for using this option? :help: | Pmnichol (12155) | ||

| 688164 | 2008-07-12 08:20:00 | S'alright, I sent Speedy an e-mail... we'll see what he has to say. Cheers =) | Pmnichol (12155) | ||

| 688166 | 2008-07-12 10:25:00 | Go and buy a DVD/HD recorder. You can connect your VCR up to it and save your video to the hard drive then burn it to DVD. :) |

| 688168 | 2008-07-12 22:34:00 | Pmnichol What Trev said unless you need to edit it. VCR -> HDD/DVD Recorder. You can copy to HDD then edit out some things in edit mode before burning it to DVD from your HDD/DVD Recorder (Depending on HDD/DVD Recorder Model) Or directly to DVD then Edit it on your PC from there but a lot more complicated. |

| 688169 | 2008-07-13 00:43:00 | Yes it save alot of mucking around doing it through your PC. I have done it both ways and using a DVD/HD recorder is alot simpler. :) |
