Generally a system used for video should be not loaded up with other software used to do other tasks. I hope this information helps someone who has been thinking about editing their own movies but did not know where to start. DV from camera is of course already in the format for FW/1394 capture to PC. If one is making their own movies from DV foortage that they shot, they could skip that ADVC box (and a TBC too) since that is a analog to DV converter. TMPGEnc or Canopus Procoder (encoding software)

If I wanted to set up a new system for doing video, including my own shot DV movies to DVDs, I would get:Ī good Pent 4 PC with two 140g HDDs XP Pro (service pack 1 only) Some of them can let you make discs that feature menus that look like Hollywood releases. Then you need to author DVD disc, there are free programs out there.
Here is a $99.99 encoder that can rival the big guys in quality if you get the settings right.

Since the ADVC 110 does not use software or drivers, it does not have issues with other sw or drivers that may be on your system. This is a big problem for some when capturing long segments. The capture device below has some features not found on PC video cards and capture devices. Really can add some strength to weak 25 or 30 year old tapes for AVI capture to PC It also takes out all copy protection for those doing legal and fair use dubs, but that is not the intended use of this picture corrector.īelow are some very high quality tools for doing it the PC way. That is the way to go if one will be processing hours and hours of VHS. There is also a device called a "time base corrector" that can beef up the signal going from tape to DVD. Sometimes a coarse looking VHS can look nicer than the original due to the DVD mpg encoding softening up the grain a tad. I always make sure the tails on disc 1 is clean, and the heads on disc two is also, so that in 5 years when they are compiled onto that other format (whatever it is), program will flow seamlessly, and no apparent splice (I'm thinking ahead), and highest quality is preserved. And then I will be glad I maxed out the bit rate and achieved highest quality. I think that when and if I get into another format, like HD, I could dump the 2 disc set onto one HD later.

I figure that I have gone through the trouble of all this, I may as well have the full best quality.
My materials that I have transfered often end up being 2 dvd sets. But more often than not, I use 8200kbs on video and pcm audio which limits me to about 68 minutes per DVD5. Since doing VHS (or LD) to DVD requires time and effort using computer and sw, I like to go all out and use ideal bit rates for respective program length. This is basic mastering to get good quality without having left over unused data on the final disc. The standalones last time I checked required a selection of 60m. I have contemplated getting a standalone recorder, as that would be all I need at the moment.Ĭlick to expand.Very cool! One thing about doing the compression rate custom on a computer, is that you can select a high bit rate that is ideal for say a 74 min. But (and here's why I brought up the whole business of the workaround in the first place), it will have to wait until I get a new computer. I do agree that going straight to computer is less hassle, and that is the way that I will be going, as I've been finding it hard to find out the resolution on DVD-recorders, whereas the resolution on video capture cards are a known quantity (usually). So minimum requirements for the computer are slightly less. There may be some cases where the straight rip will be sufficient, in which case you've saved yourself a great deal.Ģ - the standalone DVD recorder may or may not be much more expensive than a video capture card and associated software.ģ - you get to keep using your computer while the rip is going.Ĥ - the DVD editing can be done in non-real-time, whereas in the case of a straight-to-computer rip, the computer has to be sufficiently powerful for real-time rips. 1 - it is potentially adding an extra step.
