Answer 1

You need a capture device that plugs into the red,white and yellow plugs of your VCR and converts it to a computer signal, and the software to organize it to a DVD.  A sample discription is listed below

Hi Fred,

You can do it with DVD Express.

With DVD Xpress you can transfer your video to your hard drive and then edit it if you desire. DVD Xpress comes with basic video editing software. I got mine at Sam's for $59.95. They are cheaper now. You can look at one & read about it here - http://www.usb-ware.com/ads-dvd-xpress.h...

I saw a newer model at WalMart recently. It was the DVD Xpress2. I can’t remember what it cost but I think it was $39.95.

You connect the composite output of your VHS or camcorder into the DVD Xpress and connect the DVD Xpress to your computer via a USB cable.

I did all our old 8mm home videos and a lot of the kids Disney VHS tapes. The DVD will be VHS quality. Watchable but not DVD quality.
