Preferred list of equipment to buy for transferring / restoring videos ?
Boy, I sure hope I've located the right "lordsmurf". I would hope you're just about the only person who uses this nickname (perhaps trademarking it wouldn't be a bad idea?). I'm only half kidding. Your reputation precedes you.
So I've asked how to transfer from VHS to DVD on a thread on digitalfaq.com under the nickname "cc4npg", but not sure if you'll see it. Please forgive me for obviously trying to track you down. I'm unfortunately feeling pressure to get this done asap for my kids. <snipped> They want to watch these video's, but I won't allow the VHS tapes to be played over and over. I have like 20 VHS tapes dating from 1989.. home videos. I dubbed them to DVD using a Panasonic DMR years ago (RAM.. not supported by most players). My video's are actually not in horrible shape I don't think. A couple have the fuzz at the bottom of them (sorry, chemo brain can't remember what that fuzz is called). The DVD-RAM copies definitely are not as clear as the VHS... lost some quality in transfer. I've not viewed the VHS much and have kept them in a temp/humidity controlled environment. I wish it were a simple matter of just copying using a Panasonic, but alas, my research has proven otherwise because I want them as crisp and clean as possible. Please explain to me as detailed as possible what I need to buy, and if possible how to do it. I have this list I found on digitalfaq (see below) of items to consider buying. Is this still the preferred list? So, if I get each of these items, how would I hook them all up? Would it be going into my computer to burn to dvd? I see some of these items on eBay and am thinking about bidding but I don't know the first thing about what questions, if any, to ask before bidding. I know there are manuals for most things on digitalfaq. If you can please guide me, I'd be very appreciative. As soon as I get a way to do so, I'll be donating to the digitalfaq site. Quote:
