|  Re: Need help on what is needed on converting VHS tapes to DVD Media Yes it's possible. First you need your VCR ofcourse. Then a video capture device. ( or a video card with VIVO) Some DVD authoring/editing software, pinnacle studio or cyberlink power director for examples. And a DVD/RW drive.

Alternately, pick up a VHS-DVD recording device: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...441&CatId=2355 Just over $100, and you don't need to waste computer time. Just start the record and go back to gaming.  -Grim

| Re: Need help on what is needed on converting VHS tapes to DVD Media At school I've worked with Panosonic editing type stuff, though not as simple as this.... But it looks pretty solid.

| Re: Need help on what is needed on converting VHS tapes to DVD Media Yeah, that does look solid, I would recommend that over a pc based system just for simpliciy sake. There are a lot of steps to using a pc to do the same thing, and you will most likely get better quality using that deck. Quality is poor just going from vhs to pc. I would hate to add another generation in with it.
