How can I put VHS videos onto my computer?

How do I hook up a VHS player to my computer to put home videos to disc?

  • I have several home videos on VHS and a player but would like to put them into my computer to burn them down to disc. My family has wanted me to do this for years. Now I am ready and do not know how to do it. I have windows XP.

  • Answer:

    You need a capture card and capturing software to get the video onto the computer. Once it's there, you'll need to edit (optional), author the video to DVD-Video format, and then burn to a disc. Some programs combine these steps, although the quality of "all-in-one" software varies greatly. Several sites cover this topic quite in depth: http://www.digitalFAQ.com http://www.digitalFAQ.com/forum/ http://www.videohelp.com
