My dad is trying to copy all of his old family video tapes to DVD. He was asking me what to use and how to do it. Since I've never done it, I thought I'd ask here.
I guess I'm looking for info on DVD writers, additional equipment, etc.
My dad just purchased a DVD Bridge. It's a small unit which plugs into the computer via firewire and you plug your camcorder, tv, or vcr into it. The included software allows video and audio editing. It allows you to write to DVD, CD, S-VCD, or send video email or webcast.
It looks like a pretty neat toy. We're gonna give it a try this weekend.
