VHS to DVD Conversion

[RiversFox]

Has anyone successfully accomplished this and how?

I looked online and there are different methods and negative comments for all of them.

If anyone knows how to complete this task - I would appreciate the input.

if you have the right kind of video card and vlc media player, you can watch the vhs through it and record the video with it ...

there are different methods to do, it all depends on what you are looking for.

Many digital camcorders have the ability to stream the VHS signal thru the camera into the computer. If you have one of these, you can use your Dcam capture software to get it into digital format. From there, you can burn DVD's. If you don't have a digital camcorder, you should consider this if you are thinking of buying hardware.

There is a freeware product that does a lot of conversions and DVD burns, flash , etc. It works really well and all you have to put up with is a request to download a toolbar when you close the programs.

I have a Panasonic DVD player that also records and still have a VCR hooked up. That's one way. You have to record in regular speed, though.

I use Pinnecle, composit in and I record at DVD qualaity mpeg2, no frame drop outs at all. Then burn the dvd from the mpeg2 file and it works great...
