sure, it really is accessible, in spite of the indisputable fact that the video high quality is in basic terms not cd high quality. it really is going to be somwhat close if not a touch worse than vhs high quality. you'd be desiring to purchase a converter that is going between the vcr and the computer. it will fee everywhere from $20 to $one hundred. you'll in all likelihood have a lit a lot less heartache procuring a dvd recorder and connecting the vcr into the enter part of it. dvd-ram recorders quite do not fee all that a lot. i ought one a costco for $one hundred, and use it to dodge dropping shows from my DVR. it will actually have an same characteristics as a programmable vcr.

TV cards/ or Capture Cards for the PC are the best way to go... software alone will never do it, even with special cables... you loose too much video quality. Haupage WInTV cards are the best for the money, there are better ones out there but they are really expensive.

Yes. Look at video software for your PC (in Best Buy or someplace like that.) Some come packaged with a hardware cable that will hook into your USB port and record from your VCR while it is playing your movie. They can be expensive though. I use "Video Explosion" and it works great! Good luck!

yes, but you need a special vcr/dvd combi unit which will do it directly like tape to cd, but it is a specialist item so you may have to really search for one. i have seen it done. the only other way is lots and lots of leads. play your video on your tv then use a re-writable dvd player to copy it. might take some fiddling though to be able to make it record

Yes - I do it all the time.
You will need either a video capture card for the PC or a "video to USB" converter. you will also need software to record the video (the video capture card or video to usb converter will usually come with software).
