VHS back-up software
« on: October 25, 2006, 02:42:10 PM »
Hi all,
Not sure where to ask this, so I will try here.
I am looking for some software to put my VHS tapes onto DVD that is good and easy to use.
Thanks for any help that you may give

I'd sooner recommend a piece of hardware for that. Those DVD/VHS players, for example.

    Try DVD Xpress fromADS Tech.  It's very simple.

      Hi all, Just been looking at pinnacle studio 9 that a friend has,  Reading the help it says
      " A camcorder or VCR with analog outputs connected to a DirectShow-compatible capture board or external device."
      would I be right in saying that to copy from a VHS to DVD with pinnacle you have to have a TV card in your computer or is it something else !
      Thanks
      Ned     :-?  (it's a can of worms)

      ps I am looking at this because I can use it with my digital camera after recording my VHS tapes onto DVD's

      Can Your video camera hook up to your computer anyways? And an external device in my mind would be like the DVD Xpress device.
