You'll need a converter or take it to a camera/video shop You have a couple options: If it's just one or two tapes, consider taking it to a camera/video specialty store and having them do it. I know RitzCamera stores offer this service for around $30 per tape. However, I'd suggest mailing them off to a company called "YesVideo" They can convert 2 tapes (VHS & camcorder tapes) to DVD for $30.

Follow this link for details. If you have several tapes ... (and I wasn't sure if you meant the tapes you play in a VCR or the littler VHS tapes that you use with those older camcorders): If the former, then check out a product called "VHS to DVD. " If the latter, and if you have several tapes, then I'd suggest getting a converter.

Not cheap -- the one I recommend around $225. Canopus ADVC110 Converter. You can get them on Amazon, too.

Hope that helps! .

I am doing this right now, as a matter of fact, with the help of answers I got right here in Askville!. But instead of taking them somewhere and having someone else do it, I purchased a Panasonic DMR ES15 DVD recorder at Sams Club for $149.79, and am doing it myself. Face it; VHS is dead.

VHS tapes are poor quality, short life span, and lack many of the features of DVD. So why keep your VHS tape machine? Replace it with a DVD recorder, then copy off all those precious VHS tapes into a format that lists a LONG time!

Don't be intimidated by the remote control that looks like the instrument panel of the space shuttle; the instruction book is pretty clear, and you will only use three or four of those buttons in copying your tapes ondo disk. All operations have a very clear on-screen display, and soon become second nature. Even the required connection cables are included with the above unit, as well as a couple of DVD's to tinker with.

One caveat, though; if you have a lot of VHS commercial movies you plan to copy to DVD disk (PERFECTLY legal as long as you do not pass on either the tape or the disk to someone else! ), you will find that SOME are copy-protected and cannot be copied. We have a fair collection of movies I am copying, and it seems to be about half of them cannot be copied due to this protection.

One great thing about this recorder is the Flexible Record feature. If you have a movie that is 122 minutes long, you are not restricted to recording it at the four-hour per disk rate, but can set the record time to 122 minutes exactly, which preserves MUCH more quality in the movie - But don't delay; I waited too long for some of our old family movies that had been put on VHS from old film-type home movies, and lost some parts forever. I am certainly glad I did not wait any longer, though, as I was close to losing them all.

Dubbing The process of getting VHS videos onto a DVD is called Dubbing. You can find some relatively cheap DVD/VCR players that will dub either way. How this works is you put in a black DVD, the VHS, and then play the movie in dubbing mode, as it plays, it records.

There are a few ways to do this but... First your going to need some Video editing software. I don't know much about that for the PC but iDVD is great to use for the mac! We use our Digital Video camera...you can hook up a VCR to it, and record the tape sendin the signal through the cable to your computer...and it digitally records....thats the best way I know of... I think there are probably ways to directly hook up your vcr to your computer also but I would have to look more into that... But if you have a mini DV cam that should do the trick!.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
