VHS is a pain to put online.  You will need an analog-to-digital video converter, which you can get for a couple of hundred bucks or less; I have one from Pinnacle which seems to work pretty well, and comes with Pinnacle Studio for video editing.  I recommend getting a digital camcorder to do any future recordings, though - it will eliminate one arduous step from your production process.

If you can't do it internally on your computer, here's another way:\n\nYou will need a tape recorder with R(ight) and L(eft) line inputs.  A VCR will work wonderfully if you dont have a tape recorder because the VCR sound recording quality is darn near CD quality.  You will also need a "stereo "1/4 to phono plug (RCA type)" patch cord which you can easily get from Radio Shack.  This cord should look like a small headphone plug on one end and split into 2 phono plugs on the other.  Plug the headphone end into your "line out" or "headphone" jack on your computer (usually green in color).  Plug the other 2 ends into the "line in" jack of your tape recorder or VCR.  (If using a VCR the channel needs to be set to "Aux" or "line" in order to record.  You should have it hooked to a tv to monitor the sound - but you will get no picture.)  Simply hit "Record" on the recorder/VCR and play the VCD on your computer.  The recorder should record the sound from the computer as it plays the VCD.  After the recording is finished, rewind the tape to the beginning.  Now you will need to switch your cord around.  Plug the headphone end of the cord into the "line in" or "input" jack on your computer (usually red in color).  Then plug the other 2 ends into "line out" or "headphone" jack on the recorder/VCR .  Your computer should have some recording software such as Microsoft media recorder or something like that already installed.  Use that software to record from the recorder/VCR as you play back the recording.  You should hear it playing through your computer's speakers.  Your computer's recording software should be set (in "settings menu") to record "line in" and in "stereo".  You will also be able to select which format to record in, such as MP3 or WMA or others.    Once you've done this, your music should be able to be copied right on to a CD using your CD burning software.  Hope this helps!  Good luck!

you need to transfer the analog data from the VHS cassette tape into a form the computer can read.  one thing you could do is buy a DVD recorder, plug your VCR into it, and record it all in real time.  The Computer will then be able to read the digitized version of the video.  another thing you could do would be to buy an analog-to-digital converter for your computer.

I use  a program that's called  ADS TECH 'DVD EXPRESS'. It works really well. It's basically a modulator that hooks up to the computer. You can hook up your television, your VCR, camera or camcorder to it and upload all movies or images. It records them to a file of your choice or you can transfer them directly to a disc. And they play beautifully on your DVD player. I did this for christmas. I made a disc for each of my children with pics of them when they were young and old home movie footage. They loved it. There are several programs out there you can also go to a computer store and ask someone about different software depending on what your needs are. By the way, the above software costs about $50 to $70. Hope this helped. I should also add that the program allows you to create your own titles and backgrounds, special effects and such. With menu pages as well. Just like an actual DVD.

This question was answered here, but I will post the answer here again for your convienience, slightly modified.\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AuGGcEWJPSzIwL6GmdwiYJbsy6IX?qid=1006052646934\nTO expand:\n\nFirstly you need a video capture card. Most of the newer cards come with a PVR or other kind of recording application.\n\nyou may have various options for connecting your VCR to your Capture card depending on the VCR and the Capture card.\n\nIf you are using a normal RF you will have to set the channel into the software you are using just like you would set a televison to pick up signals from the vcr. Your Camera will probably allow you to out put the video and audio to ordinary RCA cables. \n\nIf the capture card has an composite input and and adapter to accept accept RCA ( i am thinking how mine works, it may vary), then you can attach the video out RCA to the composite using a standerd RCA cable. For the audio you would connect the the audio out to your sound card or video capture card depending on your software recorders sound input and recording settings. You can get a mini jack to rca cable from an electronics store, my VCR has stero ou so i use a DUAl RCA to mini-jack cable. If your camera has a steareo RCA outs to male plugs you will need to get a FEMALE to FEMALE connector for each point (some call it a joiner) so you can plug your camera RCA  into the RCA to  mini jack\n\nBefore you start recording you may need to set a capture profile. If you have a really good PC you can capture at full frame MPEG2. You must also specify the capture size, frame rate and bitrate( i prefer constant but variable will do). The higher the bitrate the better the quality and the more space you are going to need.\n\nMy profil is set as follows: MPEG2, 3000kbps constant bitrate, 720x576, 25 fps (thats PAL, for NTSC set it to 720x480 and 23.97 or 29.97, i am not sure what the correct frames is for NTSC but it's one of theose).\n\nAUDIO: 192kbps Mpeg2. (you can set higher if you like).\n\nWith the above profile a 30 minute video takes up just over 1.3 gigabytes of space.\n\nI dont reccommend recording directly to a lternative compressed format like Divx/xvid. MPEG 2 will tak alot of space.\n\nIn your recording software, put it on the channel or input you wish to record. Press play on the VCR/camera and then Record in the software at the place you want to start recording. when it's done stop recording.\n\nYour dvd writer should have come with the neccasary software to convert the resulting video to a DVD. Some of these packages can capture the video directly into the application, so check out our software first. A little bit of the information should be available with the manual of your dvd-writer. These days they put that on the driver disk.\n\nI hope that helps you.

What format are your videos in presently? VHS? If so, you need a capturing device and software. Check out the dazzle for the device and pinnacle for the software.

You could try just playing them from a DVD player and recording them onto (S)VHS and then dubbing that to DV. After that, a simple import into your computer, and...\n\nIf you're just doing a simple compliation reel, both Microsoft and Apple have video editing (simple - cuts-only) stuff which is either available free from their website, or might already be installed on your computer.\n\nBarring that - you might want to try some of the Adobe software, or check some "bonus" CDs which you may get with a sound card, video card, DVD player, external hard drive... (these guys frequently come with el-cheapo video editing systems... they're cheasy, but easy to use, and, like I said - free!)\n\nHope that helps!

If you want to record and watch TV on your PC then there is only one name that comes to mind, Hauppauge.\n\nI use the Win TV PVR USB2 where I have connected the VCR and convert all my old videos to digital.\n\nHave Fun!!!\n\nBattery Wizard

go to the camcorder manufacturer and see if you could download any driver or software that can let your pc to access the files on your camcorder.\nIf not, you need a video capturing card, and it have the software and instruction for turning the video you play into a file, but first you have to make sure it got the socket for the connection, and the tv signal is compatible e.g. Pal or ntsc.

If you can get the video on to your computer (possibly via a video or USB cable) then have the file converted into a .wmv .avi .mpg .mpeg .mov .asf .asx .mp4 or .3g2 then you can upload the file to ....putfile.com (which is a free video hosting service), Make sure the file is no larger than 25MB. Also you could make the file smaller by putting it into a flash file (.swf) and taking out say, every 3 and 4th frame which will decrease the file size considerably.

You're going to need a tape player that has a line-out jack. From there, you can plug it into the line-in jack of your computer, and use a WAV editor to save the audio tape contents to an audio file. (Play the tape as the WAV editor is recording.)\n\nFrom there, you can take the audio file and burn it to a disc using Windows Media Player or any other number of media players.\n\n(Although, for all that trouble - it might just be better to buy the compact disc. If the tape is worn, that will reflect in the audio recording on the disc, unless you go through great length to remaster it.)

You could get a video-capture device for your computer.  This would allow you to plug your VCR outputs into your computer and record whatever the VCR is playing as a video file.  That video file could then be imported into the windows movie maker.\n\nHauppauge makes several USB video capture devices that are relatively easy to connect to your computer and setup:\n\nhttp://www.hauppauge.co.uk/pages/prods_usbs.html
