Is there a way to get films from old video tapes on to your computer?

Question

i want to make them into dvds

Answer 1

Yes you need to get an UPCONVERTER to update the video to DVD than put it on your computer.

Answer 2

Yes you can, get a video capture card and use an editing software to edit and arrange your video. You can also use a product by pinnacle system called the dazzle which is an external video capture box and then you hook that up to your computer through usb. I have the box and use it with my mac and it work really well. Or if it all of this is to much hassle you can always find a place that does video conversion and see how much they would charge you to do a tape to dvd.

Answer 3

Yes, all you need a 'video capture card' for your PC.

It is basically an analog to digital video and sound converter.

Once in your PC, then you can burn a DVD of the film(s).

Answer 4

you need to get one of the players that has vhs and dvd together, some of the good ones can record but they cost alot.

Answer 5

There are multiple ways.

I would get a tv tuner card, install it into my pc, hook up a vcr, run the program that comes with the card, play the video, record it as a mpeg file, encode that as dvd format, then burn it onto a dvd.
