Videos to DVD what do I need to do?

nearlyrich

Does anyone have any advice for me?

I have a few VHS-C videotapes from family occasions and I want to transfer them to DVD either myself or using a business. My question is what hardware and software do I need to transfer it? or who knows a good company ?

Thanks in advance:T

If you have a VCR, and a VHS-C adapter, then an under the telly DVD recorder is easiest, but not the cheapest.. but has other uses..

If you have a DVD writer in the PC, you could use something like this..

If you don't have any of these, you can get a VHS VCR combined with a DVD recorder for a couple of hundred nowadays.


If it is a one off, do any friends and family have any of this equipment?

I have the VHS-C adaptor and a dvd writer in my laptop but currently no DVD writer under the TV but we are considering buying one soon. I was wondering if there was an adaptor from the TV to a laptop ( It has firewire and USB 2 and came with Adobe Premiere Standard software)

I don't think anyone in the family or amongst my friends have any video editing equipment.
