Go to Best Buy or whatever and get a thing that says: VHS to DVD recording or something like that. Put in the tape and an empty DVD and follow the instruction manual.

The 1st step is to transfer video files from vcam to computer.
- connect vcam to computer via firewire cable (4 or 6 pin) for good transfer (USB may drop frames)
- open (free w/XP) Windows Movie Maker in computer (for starters). **see/click WMMaker help ...it is very detailed.
a. Set the camera mode to play recorded video.
b. In the Movie Maker Tasks pane/Capture Video, click Capture from video device.
c. the video files from vcam will then be put into WMM collection (usually there are several video files from vcam although you will not notice on vcam playback.
d. drag & drop video files from collection to video chart below
d. save the video files one by one (video/Audio) from the same collection
Transfer of the video files is now complete
Finally, burn these video files unto DVD using software like NERO.

You can buy a set top for $80
You can buy a computer model and capture card for $200
You can go to Wal-Mart and pay $20 per tape.

-- or a stand-alone DVD recorder. They are going to be taking over for VCRs in a few years anyway.
