lolol, I was looking for a vhs to dvd burning program and found this, look at how good the image gets upscaled with this program in the before and after comparison, it almost doesnt even look like the same pic!! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

just click on the next spam thread, one of the bots surely has what you need

 
my computer is about 7 years old running a pentium 4 i believe. so basically it is slow. i have ask a lot of questions. i joined this site and paid a $10 dollar membership for one on one help. http://www.digitalfaq.com/forum/ i bought a PCI card and a vcr from the guy that runs the site. i used VirtualDub with HuffYUV, a lossless codec, to compress to AVI. those programs are free. then i bought Corel Virtual Studio to edit and burn to DVD.
a lot of things can go wrong. this conversion was harder then i thought.


I have a 2 month old laptop w windows 7, I just want to know what i need? Is it basically just some kind of cable that hooks up to the vcr then to my computer, then you run it through the programs u listed? .. I have hdmi on my computer, but im not sure if monoprice carries a hdmi to video rca cable //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif:confused:

 
good chance you could use a USB style capture device. however from my readings, most USB capture devices, capture video to mpeg 2 format. so it is not in a raw format. your cpu is fast enough to use USB. still need a good vcr. somthing like a super vhs. biggest problem with captureing vhs is frame drops. there is expensive equipment availble (Time Base Correction TBC) to stop this, but i was on a budget.

 
i really only know minimum on the ways to do this. my equipment purchase was based on my computer specifications and the help from people that do know a lot.

good deal, imma check it out.. I wonder if those programs scle the PQ at all really, compared to just buying a vcr dvd recorder

 
It's not scaling anything, thats impossible. You can't get any better picture than you already have off the VHS. All improvements are post-Rips filtering which you can do with any video editing software.

I do this in 2 ways. One way is ok, and one is the best way possible.

If its just archiving and you don't care about quality, A VHS/DVD dubber will work fine.

If the video is degraded or important. Any deck you can connect to your computer and import with, and any editing software can give you as much or as little editing capability as you want.

I use final cut pro. Which is pretty much ideal, but you can use any video editor I imagine.

God don't get me started on HDMI technology.

No you can't convert HDMI to RCA without expensive equipment.

The kind of equipment that embodies the phrase "going around your elbow to get to your a$s"

yep. it all starts with a good VCR and capturing in a lossless codec is going to yield your best results. at least this is what i have comprehended.
