How do I Connect my VCR to my PC??

Postby SirBill61 on Sat Nov 27, 2004 7:32 pm

Sorry if this is a bit basic, but I am on the verge of buying a new PC, and would like to copy some old family videos to my PC. I don't have a video camera so how do I physically connect my PC and VCR. I've seen loads of video-editing software about, but what about actually connecting the two items.
Cheers,
Richard

You will need a capturecard,I recommend an ATI Radeon All-In-Wonder($100USD) or a AverMedia($50).I don't recommend a USB device.
