I have an older video camera (Canon es1000) that recorded in analog on hi-8 tapes. I probably have close to 100 tapes and would like to store their contents on DVDs, in the hope of someday editing them. What's the best way to transfer the analog onto DVD? (I have a good computer and a DVD burner.) Thank you.

Get a capture device such as those made by Pinnacle and Dazzle. You can get a pretty good one for under $50. Plug it into your computer using a USB or firewire cable, and plug your camera into the device using the yellow, white, and red composite cables. Using the software that comes with the device, or other editing software if you have it, you can capture the tapes. Most of the software has some sort of easy function to burn to a DVD. Some will even burn as you capture.

VGA is an analog interface and can purely carry video information. HDMI is a in user-friendly terms digital interface and transfers the two video and audio information. Your question wasn't very sparkling. the two way, you will get no audio whilst employing an HDMI to VGA converter because of the fact between the interfaces does not help it.

The cheap way is buying a dvd recorder and conecting the camera to the dvd recorder
