I don't know how to digitize VHS video tape, but if anybody has the setup
to do it, I'll make it available to anybody that wants it.


The easiest way is to get a digital camcorder and plug that into your A/V
out on the VCR and record the tape as you play it. The camcorder does all
the work. After you've recorded it onto the camcorder you now have it in
digital form and can feed it into a computer or DVD recorder.

Save a couple steps and a lot of money (over the cost of a camcorder) by
getting something like the
Turtle Beach Video Advantage USB

Even if you already have a camcorder, the TB box comes with some great
editing software.

In a couple of afternoons & evenings, we converted several old VHS camcorder
tapes of the kids when very young to digital format and then burned them to
DVDs.

We now have lots of good video to embarrass them when they get married and
have their own kids.
