[K8SPY]

Hello I am just starting out and need some advice. I am wanting to take some of our families HI-8 video (s-video) and burn it to VCD or ??? I am looking at the Winnov Videum 1000 made for the Windows XP OS. What I need is what is the best software for doing what I intend to do. Best bang for the buck. Here is what I have in my PC.
AMD 1333
K7t266 Pro 2 mobo
512 ddr
40 gig ibm 7200rpm HD.
Acer 24/10/40 burner

Any help or advice would be helpful

k8spy,

I've just been pretty much using whats available here in the HOW TO section.

I capture the vdo first by using virtual dub as explained here:

Then i convert it to MPEG using TMPEG:

And lastly i just use NERO to make the VCD.

Hope this helps...

Cheers.
