Can anyone tell me if or how I can transfer my VHS movie collection to DVD?

Answer 1

Buy a combined VHS and DVD recorder - several available in the high street shops nowadays. Don't go for the cheapest one though! You only get what you pay for.

Answer 2

There is a device sold at radio shack for about 50 bucks that allows rca connections to be connected to usb. Or purchase a video capture card ( a better way) and install it in your pc. Connect the A/V outs from your vcr to the capture card (it usually comes with softwware) and go for it.
Just one small thing particularly from Disney - COPYGUARD
If playing your vhs through your computer results in picture that fades in and out, changes color tint or even go to black and white, tape is copyguarded and you will not get a good copy.

Answer 3
