I have a half hour programme recorded about this incident with a lot of
comment from the pilots involved. If I can get hold of an analogue TV
adaptor for my PC, I'll digitise it and send it over.


That would be great, Paul. Thanks!

Another choice is to take the tape over to a local community college, and
see if they can convert it for you. Most of the better ones have the
equipment, and are glad to do it for a 12 pack of soda pop (or something)

Man, I've got a couple of dozen hours of video, taken since 1990, all
analog. Everything from the birth of my two kids, to flights over the
Grand Canyon.

I'd love to convert them to digital, and put 'em on DVD. I wonder how many
12-packs *that* would cost?

G'day Guys,


This is the device that use on my notebook and it's got to be one of dozens
of similar USB capture cards on the market.


I don't work for this crowd and I'd assume that you'd find somewhere more
local to buy it from anyway.

In short, this beast digitizes real time video into real time mpegs, wmv
etc and also has a TV tuner, so I can record from live or cable TV -
directly onto the hard disk.

It's a time consuming process - even with a fast computer - and if you want
your videos converted without copies being made without your consent - do it
at home.





Cheers


Dave Kearton

Test drive before you buy. I have found that these things, in that price
range have CRAPPY resolution. DAMHIKT

I must admit, that's something I didn't do, not that I could afford to
throw away $165 - but it's not that easy to do with an online store.
This crowd has a generous returns policy - if you're not happy with the
product.



I'm more than happy with the resolution, performance and the
associated editing software and I've since used half a dozen more (of this
brand) for work.



Certainly, yes, if you're buying it from a shopfront, see it first.



Cheers

I must admit, the unit you are talking about is something I was unaware of,
until I saw one on the shelf tonight. The kind I have experience with is a
video capture card on the computer, itself.

It does look interesting.

You should have bought a card before the school holidays and got
your son to do it. 25 cents per hour of video?
