VHS TO DVD

IS IT POSSIBLE TO CONVERT VHS TO DVD SO I CAN POST SOME SCENES ON THIS SITE?

Hello Australia - if you were in England you could come round here and I'd show you the two ways I can do it. However, the first way - when I first got this computer the guy added a program called Adobe Premiere 6.0 which has all the software inside here, plus a chunky cable called a 'breakout box' which one end plugs into the back of the VCR and the other has an end which takes 8 different leads, and use that to connect a lead to the computer (then use Premiere to record as the VHS is playing). Then afterwards you'd need in there a DVD writer or burner, but as you only want it to put stuff on this site you wouldn't need that DVD. That's what I got Premiere for - to put my home videos onto the computer to post on the internet; as seen elsewhere on this site, for example.
The other way from VHS to DVD is buy a dual machine like I did. I got it as I hear VHS deteriorates over time, so wanted to preserve my home movies, and put them on DVD as a backup. On the left side you put in your VHS and a blank DVD on the right, then press play VHS and press record DVD. My (English) machine is a Panasonic DMR-EZ47V but there are other machines around.
You could just go to a computer shop and buy a VHS to computer cable, plus get a cheap program to input from that cable I suppose. Hope it helps, anyway.
