That might work just fine. You might need a different program to capture
with. Plenty of freebies out there on the web if you look. Best wishes.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Recording VCR tape onto DVD

Hopefully this is the right forum to post this question. If not, please
let me know where this question should be posted.

I know the easiest way to copy a VCR tape to a DVD is to spend $200 and
get a dual machine made for that purpose. But after I record the VCR's
to DVD I will have an extra DVD player I won't need. I have a computer
running Win 7, AMD Athlon 3+ GHz dual core processor, 6 GB RAM and a
Hauppague 1800 TV card with coax antenna and cable inputs. The card
works well and am able to record programs through Win Media Center onto
the HD. I think by hooking up a VCR tape to the coax antenna input Win
Media Center will recognize the signal and I will be able to record it
onto my 1 TB HD. Then I just copy that onto a DVD. Am I missing
something? Has anyone done this?
