Hi,
How do I go about recording video onto a cd or dvd from:
1. a vhs video cassette (must be able - this is the main purpose) 2. a tv broadcast (good if posible else ..)
Actually I was talking to a friend of mine who would like to set this up. I offered to help him if it was a linux based solution.
I have googled and found that a lot ot documentation seems to point to video capture cards and tv tuner cards with a certain amount of ambiguity. I have looked up the hardware compatibility lists, websites of mythtv, cinelerra, mjpegtools and a few more.
he already has a pretty new machine w/ 2.4 G P4, 512 ram and a 80 GB hd of which we can give linux about 40 GB. He would like to do this professionally somewhere down the line and hence would not be averse to buying a good card.
I want to know which card is a better bet, a video capture card or a tv tuner card. recording tv broadcasts though is not a priority or even a necessity, the aded ability would just be icing on the cake.
Any personal experiences ?
thanks a mil.
Sharukh.
