Hi G&T

How do you put old video's onto DVD? I would love to know as I have a couple I want to transfer, but don't know how to do it?

Sorry I couldn't answer your question.

Snad - you buy a DVD recorder, and connect it between the Video player and the TV, and just record as it plays!

yes that would work if thevideo isn't copy protested or the dvd player strips macrovision. Otherwise you would need a device or a scart lead that does this for you.

I dont think you can get a scart lead to do it, but there are boxes you can get that do it..

Best way I found was to feed it into a pc graphics in, and encode into MPG or DVD that way..
