Video to DVD transfer - VHS to DVD transfer - Convert to DVD Easily!
Transferring your old home movies to DVD are a good way to incrase the life of your videos because anything that runs on tape needs a head to read. The head in the machine rubs against your tape in which over time will cause the tape to loose quality. But with DVD, the laser reads the information on the disc which does not pyshically touch the disc itself. That is why if stored properly and kept clean, DVDs are able to sustain quality over time much better than VHS tapes.
In order to capture your footage into DVD, there are two choises. In the first option, you'll need a DVD recorder that can write DVDs.
1) If you have 8mm tape, attach a cable (RCA S-video or mini plug) into the ouput of your camcorder.
2) Plug the cable into the input of your DVD recorder.
3) connect the audio cable into the output of your camcorder and into the input in your DVD recorder.
4) Select the input channel your using on your DVD recorder.
5) Press play on your camcorder.
6) once you see images on your screen press the record button
7) depending on your tape (usually 2 hours on 8mm tape) you can choose your recording mode.
8) I usually record in SP
Using a capture card
1) With your 1394 installed, connect the firewire cable into the camcorder
2) if your 8mm tape camcorder doesn't have a firewire you'll need a camcorder or deck that has one
3) connect the video and audio into the ouput in your 8mm tape camcorder into the input of your firewire camcorder
4) open the capture software in your computer (I use Adobe Premiere)
5) Start capturing in your computer and press play in your 8mm tape camcorder
6) The Firewire camcorder is used to transfer the information into your computer through RCA to firewire.
