your best bet is to give them to someone else to do for you, eg. that starlight video productions dude, he'll do it for ya i'm sure.

There are simple hardware that will record tape to dvd on the fly. Its the less time consuming way to do this stuff

u want to do editing? ok.. get ready for a lot of work though.
I use Adobe Premiere Pro CS3, but i think that might be over kill for you if you aren't going to be doing a lot of manual edditing Pinnacle Studio might be a good choice.. its pretty basic and has a lot of pre-made effects |

you have to check what hardware you use against software that can capture it.
I only move over video via firewire for capturing. My other camera is a hard disk. so first find out what software supports your capture card |

its a legacy video capture device, i will be connecting a vcr to it via the composite sockets (or whichever ones are yellow-video, red and white- l and r audio)
im gonna try virtual dub for capturing, and then maybe premiere for cleaning up and editing. Last edited by lucid_interval : 05-24-2008 at 02:17 PM. |

What has led you to believe that these pumpkins shows are possibly unsurfaced?

I usually use Virtual Dub to capture, Premiere to Edit and Cinema Craft Encoder to encode. CCE is easily the best encoder and should be easily found on torrent sites. To make the menu, for a first time user try out TMPGEncs DVD author. If you do have some shows that are possibly unsurfaced, I would love to capture them myself if you'd be willing.

I have a 1st gen copy of 5/19/00 that I tried to transfer on my parents VHS/DVD combo deck the last time I was at home and really just wasn't satisfied with the generation loss. |

Yeah, I have a JVC D-VHS VCR for that. Cost a few hundred. Excellent quality though. The VCR does make a huge difference.

Well 1991-08-17 was circulated by me. It was made on an older standalone DVD burner, so the quality is not up to the quality of recent transfers. Unfortunately, the guy I got that DVD from is in jail for selling bootlegs so I'll never get another copy. Oh well, whatta ya gonna do.
Redbull, I have to set up my caputuring equiptment again. Then I'd be game. |
