Does anyone here have any personal experience regarding the transferring of video tapes (e.g., VHS, 8mm) to DVD that they can share? I've seen several hardware examples (e.g., Pinnacle, Roxio, Honestech), but with each positive review, you get an equal number of negative reviews, thus rendering them all null and void. These tapes are not copyrighted (i.e., holidays, vacations, etc).
Thank you.

I know our super-warehouse Costco does it for a nominal fee. I have one or two VHS tapes that I need to convert as well.

But do you have any personal experience with either some other company (e.g., Costco, Walgreens) doing it or using a hardware solution on your own?

No. A friend of mine has a device that does the conversion and ignores the privacy. He swore it converted great. Don't know the name though.

So, no trouble copying the fuzzy outlines and colour fades and the white streaks and sound dips then. Er ... excellent ... I guess!
|

But will they bypass copy protection?

My videos are personal videos. So I should be fine wither way. I haven't asked about Costco's yet.

I have an oldish Sony unit that I bought at Walmart that is a VHS and DVD in one unit. It transfers in either direction. The quality of the DVD (depending on the VHS source tape) is pretty good.

Yes, I did some earlier this year. I'll try to remember to update this with the brand and model when I get home.
My primary concern was some old movies that are not available as DVD (yet), so I had to deal with copy protection. For this, I tried a stabilizer, but it wasn't a simple plug-n-play operation.

Well, as per Pakistan's time I have got just 4 hours left as a teenager. Tomorrow's my 20th birthday and I almost feel grown up, I don't know what to do actually tomorrow. But most of the plans say, that I will sleep entire day tomorrow!
As a teenage I received much from many communities, learnt to support and to say sorry when I am wrong; a hard thing to do as a teenager!
I have enjoyed being a member of CodeProject, last year I joined (actively) in August and since then I have gained not just reputation but a lot of knowledge, support and respect in community. The trust most members have in me is a repay for that. Personally, after all this hard work that I did as a teenager will definitely help me in my coming years.
I just wonder, what is next to come.

If it goes like it went for me, nothing is going to change in your immediate future.

I am expecting this, not to change the way I am.

I'd take it as you never heard of "Mascara" and its applications to female beauty.

Ah 20, it reminds me of 21, 22, 23...
Turning 20 wasn't such a big deal for me, I don't even remember it.
Almost 28 now, nearing 30's...
Before you know it you're in a retirement home and don't remember anything
Well anyway, happy birthday to my favorite Pakistani!
