One thing about transferring to share this one is that it kinda cheapeans my copy that I bought a decade ago on vhs.
It is kinda nice to know that I got something that is somewhat rare, and it is sortof a reward for being into the hip for all these years.
But, I know I would feel the same way about wanting to get a copy if I didnt already have one.
Thank goodness for ebay.

Just to save the VHS copy and alot of rewinding/fast-forwarding, I transferred it to DVD a couple months ago. It's burned at the highest quality (8 mbps), turning a standard 2-hr blank into a 1-hr blank. In order to get it within the 1-hr/4.7 GB maximum, I didn't include any menus and I had to cut the end credits where Neuf tells a story, but otherwise it's all there.
question for ya, i have some video tapes that i'd like to transfer to dvd (non-hip related unfortunately), what do i need to do that? what is the best capture card to get, for a relatively inexpensive amount?

I've had success doing VHS -> DVD transfers, using my digital video camera. There is a "pass-through" option on the camera, that changes the analogue signal from the VCR to a digital signal for the computer on the fly. All I needed to buy was a firewire to connect the dv camera to the computer.

I have a DVD that srb transferred as per the method he described, and it looks great!

that sounds great, but i don't have a dv cam!
i gather a capture card would be a lot cheaper....anyone have any experience doing it that way?
