Converting home videos to DVD

[Barney Rubble]

Got a huge year next year with boys turning 18 & 21.

Have a number of 8mm tapes from the camcorder i want to get onto a DVD.

Is it best to do it myself ? (if so help )

or can anyone recommend someone who does this for a living?

Cheers

you can by a program that comes with a cable that has an audio and visual out put on one side and a usb on the other. transfer the movie onto you cpu and presto done. you can buy them any where (JB's, dick smith etc) but there about $80

My Dad grabbed something like that from JB's, had all the cables too.
It really was a plug and play, if he can do it, anyone can.

See if these guys can help - www.highlites.com.au

you might be able to get the highlights as well as the tape, and if you video games you could use an iphone to cut it up live.

I may be able to help you if you havent had any success as yet......will do it for a lot less than the price of fixing the camera depending on how many you have.....can certainly transfer to dvd for you.
