Maybe it's better you follow Lord Smurfs recommendations. More problems will come if you have to install the splitter hardware. Wrong settings and you will have no picture.
I think I speaking against walls.
The analog signal from the svideo out of your svhs videorecorder is digitized when using a dvd recorder in passthrough mode. If the output is via the analog outputs such as composite or Y/C (scart), the digital internal signal is converted back to analog. In the HDMI mode, the internal digital signal is tapped via intensity pro. You save the digital to analog conversion for the analog outputs of the DVD recorder.
Feel free to follow the advanced users because everyone prefers a slightly different way to capture.
Whether this is Lord Smurf, Latreche24, hodgey or sanlyn to name a few.
the hdmi way was the result of 4 years of testing on german videoboard. The users goldwingfahrer, gubel and some more tested many capture solutions that were available on the german market.
Is it the perfect method. No (you have to know the peculiarities of the different DVD recorders and possibly accept the picture they output). Each capture way has its advantages and disadvantages. You should use the search function here and read up first and then decide for yourself what is your perfect way that fits your tapes and especially your budget.
My recommendation for PAL countires would be a Canopus NX with Edius which I use. But I'm not an advanced user either (and Lord Smurf have never tested too...).
