How Do You Rip From Vhs To Dvd
 

Does anyone know how to rip from VHS to dvd? What hardware and software do i need?

THANKS!!

I think you will need a card of some sorts that allows you to plug your rca cables into your pc. Im sure the software will come with the card.





Tyler!

then what? what softwear do i need?


thanks

Get yourself a card and then ask your questions.


Most likely itll save your video to either mpeg or avi formats.




Tyler!

im lookin or the same thing, any card suggestions (tyler or any1)?

ATI All in Wonder video cards. You can transport anything into your computer with them. You can even plug your cable into it. Record, and burn TV shows to DVD.
But if your one of those prople with a "pre-made" computer. You probly have intergrated video(no AGP slot to install this card). And you will need what he said above.
I myself use Nero Express to make the DVDs.

Hey i have a ati card and i can watch the vhs and record the img useing digital vcr. But it downloads to my hard drive in mpeg-2 format. what do i need to do to get it to dvd?

Also i cant here sound from my vhs. Should i be hearing any audio? It says there is audio but i just cant here it?

Yes, you should have audio; check your connections in the ATI AIW manual, are there separate connections for the audio? Did you connect the audio to your card properly?

Once you have that problem solved and create a new video with sound, use a burner software like Nero 6 Ultra Edition to create your DVD. MPEG2 is the correct format for a DVD but you will just need to prepare it for viewing from a DVD. In Nero 6 Ultra Edition, you can do this by creating a video DVD (not a data burn), which will prepare the required structure (e.g., VIDEO_TS/filename.VOB) so that this video will automatically play in your DVD player. If you want to create a nice menu interface, you might be able to also do this with Nero, or another tool like Adobe Encore.

i tryed to burn with nero. After i go into a video dvd and creat new. it gives me to files video.ts and audio.ts. but thonly thing i have to put into the files is the only imge i have that is audio and video togeater. the mpge2 file that came off my ati card

Get your self a HP external dvd movie writer.
Hook up a VCR to the movie writer and movie writer to the usb port on your computer.
You will run into problems with "macrovision" protection on the VHS. There is a product called "clarrifier" available from Facet Video. which you install between the VHS and movie writer.

It takes about 4 hours to copy a VHS. but it works!

If only everyone were smart enough to purchase a Sony Vaio. Mine came with "Giga Pocket" I love it!!!

I have a Sony Vaio Notebook.




Tyler!

IF YA GOT AN ATI CARD
this is your CORRECT ANSWER
forget the other stuff

and yes it will take a LONG time...............
to convert and burn one

(buy an NVIDIA next time/ much better drivers, ATI historically has driver problems)

actually INTEL controls about 40% of the video market
since most idiots are willing to accept what is built into their store bought mobo
(Intel doesn't even make cards)

BUT................................

NVIDIA is # 2
ATI and VGA are well behind
(constantly playing catch-up with NVIDIA)
if you are primarilty a gamer
(which I am)
you know the score

if not
as a general rule
a NVIDIA card is gonna play most everything on your PC better than an ATI
and like I said
they update their drivers ALL THE TIME
and they tend to WORK
wherin ATI's drivers are suspect

...Or simply connect your VHS to your PC\Laptop via USB.
