Hi Pele,

Below is some info I extracted from a computer magazine some time ago for converting vhs to digital.

Ion VCR 2 PC Video Conversion System
From
www.firebox.com
Price ukp150
This big box pretty much does what it says on the tin. Simply insert a slice of
yesterday's video technology into the device, navigate the supplied software
and then press Convert, to create a digital video file of the tape that can be
burnt to a more convenient DVD.

Pinnacle Video Transfer ukp123
www.pinnaclesys.com
This innovative device enables you to capture video without having to have a PC in the vicinity. Simply plug in your video source (TV, camcorder, DVD/VHS video
player or games console) at one end, and at the other have ready the storage
platform of your choice (USB stick, portable hard drive or iPod, for example). Composite video and S-Video inputs means that you could connect your dusty VHS player and digitise all your films that run on last century's technology, before
giving your tapes to your nearest charity shop. All the necessary cables are
supplied and the one-button operation makes the conversion process a breeze.

Hi Everyone

I know this question has been asked before, but I was not interested so did not pay attention to the answers.

We still have a video recorder and a number of videos. What is the easiest way to convert them? Can i connect the video recorder to my PC and use some kind
of software to do it that way, or do I have to buy a box of some kind?
