Have you ever thought about taking them somewhere and have them copied onto DVDs? I think I read somewhere where there are companies that can do it for you -- maybe be pricey, though. I think you can even buy some type of machine yourself and do it. I'm thinking about doing those with all of my Live Tae Bos (since they are no longer available and are the only ones I like!). That question was posted before at the Firm YaYa website. I've copied a copule of their responses -- hope it helps!
One response:
"Depending on your video card in your computer, you might just be able to connect your VCR to your video card via regular coax, and use a video capture program to save the VHS to your computer. The only thing that sucks is that it is realtime...so a 40 minute video takes 40 minutes to capture"
Another response:
"Or you can buy a DVD recorder if you can't do the above or prefer not to. They range in price from about $100 & up. Actually, I had bought one @ Wal-Mart that used to sell for ar $90 & dropped to $50, 'cause they were selling so well. Granted, it's not as good as my $100 RCA, which was a GREAT price, but it does the job. Bear in mind, that if your VHS is copyright protected and \ or has macrovision, you will not be able to copy it {unless you buy something that overrides that}."
