Calling all you technos out there!!!!
Whats the easiest way of transferring digitally camcorded cassste onto a pc without needing 80 billion megs of free space and pc that would put NASA to shame....
Maybe someone knows of some software that will do the job with a minimum of fuss?
Who knows...with the right answer I might be tempted to post a few pics...
There...that should be incentive enough
you need a capture card and then the images can be compressed and put onto vcd or similar,its easy really...
try going to and look at the tutorials there,and you will find everything you need to know on that site biggrin
You will need a processor minimum speed of 2800. a dedicated graphics card and as much memory as you can slot in, if you already have a firewire slot you can use software to capture your digital video.
If you are useing analogue tape you will need a capture card.
a decent system is Pinnacle studio 8 which will capture both analogue and digital and comes with a good editing software. you will need a spare pci slot though.
At the risk of advertising the next issue of Computeractive magazine is running an article on what you need and should be available via their website Good luck.
