Hi!
How was the dvd made, with a vhs to dvd transfer machine or through a computer product such as Pinnacle Dazzle?
If you want to use a product such as Pinnacle Dazzle or equivalent, please consider the following.
These products have software which will allow the user to capture on demand video, and/or sound, then converts the captured clips to digital formats. At which time the user can edit the individual digital clips then finally produce a dvd if needed. Dvd creation is not necessary if producing to the web.
These products usually come basically with a converter cable which on one end has an USB port connection to the computer, while on the other end contains RCA input ports (Audio-Red/White, Video-Yellow) and S-Video.
All you need to do is connect the VHS device to the RCA input ports and connect the USB port to the computer, select capture mode to on using the software on your computer, then select "play" on your VHS device and record at will.
Note: Cameras devices and software may offer a more sophisticated user interface than the described above, but those are the basic steps.
Please note and manage where you place the converted clips as this will be the uploaded directory for sites like MT and YouTube.
Good luck and looking forward to seeing the footage of the Professor!
