Ok so few ppl reccomend DVD recorder with HD

once i copy to dvd recorder HD can i try and get this to pc instead of putting on dvd and then converting to avi on pc? will this not degrade quality?

Jeffy - this is the one I bought:

Works perfectly, but as I said earlier my VHS only has a Scart socket and I had to use a Scart to A/V converter plug which is an adaptor that plugs into the Scart socket and gives you the output connections to plug the video and sound jack plugs into from the Video Grabber.

It's currently priced at £35, but this is a TV auction site (programme appears on Freeview) and mine ended up around £15 including P&P. This next one is coming up on 23rd. of this month at 12.09p.m.

I was thinking of getting one of these http://www.ebuyer.com/product/150929 which was suggested earlier, but have the same problem as our video player only has a scart socket, do you think one of these would work okay http://info.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=35931&&source=14&doy=11m1
thanks

Can't see the first item as it says it's out of stock, but the second is not what you need to attach a video grabber such as this one I bought:

As you can see, the sockets on the video grabber are female, so you would need a Scart adapter with MALE video and audio outputs. I already had one attached to my video sender, so I just used that.
