Re: VHS to DVD recorder
Yea i have a video card for my computer that has a rf and rca adapters and a dvd burner so I just hook the vcr to the comp and record the video then burn it, I guess one of those machines would save a step...Just buy a digital camera or call me i have one and I don't use it to much so you could borrow it

I hate borrowing things, you never have it when you need it. You want to sell it to me?

Ahh yea, I can't believe I didn't recommend a TV tuner card first! Basically it lets you watch/record TV on your computer (You can get software to use it like Tivo to record your favorite shows without the monthly service fee ) And some of them also have an RCA video input which is great for hooking up VCRs camcorders, surveillance cameras, etc. Here's a link to almost the exact same one that I have:

get something with the ATI Theatre 550pro, you dont need an entire video card. go to www.ncix.com and look around. a good one can be had for ~80 US. + shipping.
(i think that x1300 AIW comes w/ the 550pro chip, but you dont need a $400 video card)

but a tuner card won't get you the same quality video as a tivo or dvr. i was lookin into doin that with an old desktop pc i have. but i got a dvr instead with dish network.
and thats PCI-E. theres a good chance his motherboard doesn't support that.
