Paano magconvert ng VHS movie to vCD format?

[BoyL3]

mga parekoy, help naman kung paano gagawin to? ano mga gadgets na kailangan?

[ghosthunter]

video capture device to record the VHS (or any other video source) to your PC. Then a CDRW drive to make a VCD.

[BoyL3]

depends... some TV cards are only a tuner and output. What I am mentioning is a video capture card.

Try this link:
www.dazzle.com

[ghosthunter]

BTW, it does get pricey and expensive if you want to buy the equiptment. If its only for one time use, best to have it done by a shop na lang.

pwede rin kasing gawing business ghosthunter eh, kaya interesado ako.

[boybi]

ok yang dazzle. alam ko nasa P7-8k ang card nyan.

well, you're not the first guy to think of that. I also went that path as a sideline to my CD copying biz a couple of years ago. Downside is the amount of work needed to get a VCD done right.

I initially used a card version of the dazzle... it gave out after six months, probably overheated it or something. I later got the USB version. That one is still working now.

just like ghosthunter said, you need a tv capture card. just bought one last week, brand is ECS EZ-TV. im still trying to play with it pa lang. if youre planning to transfer your vhs to vcd, you need to have a 20GB (at least) hardisk. thats for the raw file after you captured your vhs movie.

Actually, kung video capturing lang, eh straightforward lang yan.

Capture video input ---> save the files as .mpg ----> Burn the .mpg file as a VCD format.

If you want to edit your captured file, you will need a lot of diskspace.

I'm using a Snazzi Video Creator, u can also try Pinnacle.

Ako Pinnacle....my long process:
Transfer VHS to MiniDV (RCA connection from VHS Player to MiniDV Camcorder)
Transfer MiniDV to PC using Pinnacle (Firewire Connection from MiniDV to PC)

Pinnacle Software has a lot of editing tools. Kaya nga DVD but you need a DVD writer.

LeadTek capture card lang gamit ko.. yung firewire di ko pa na try 1200pesos yung card ng huling tanong ko sa greenhills

[boybi]

kakabili ko palang ng firewire card. P1200 nga. ang kagandahan nito is isang connection lang for the video and the audio.

pissword, bakit di mo nalang try i-download sa net ang mp3 version nyang mga tapes mo? mas madali na, mas mura pa.

[pissword]

sir boybi ang dami kasi...some songs dinownload ko na nga pero pag dinownload ko sya sa net, matagal. and prepaid lang magagamit ko.. and around 200 tapes+ un sa boyfriend din nya marami pa... tas 10 to 12 songs/tape so 2000 songs un haha tagal ata sobra sir eh... patay din HD ko nun hehe

sayang kasi talaga magaganda pa naman.. analog kasi ang tape tas digital ang cd. i was just wondering maybe may makatulong sakin dito... wala bang may idea?

alnr,

snazzi comes with a capture software, it has a feature where you can adjust the contrast, brightness,color and saturation ng video na ika-capture mo. I've been using this to capture TV programs or from Video Cam and VHS player.

And I edit the capture mpg file using Video Studio. My harddisk capacity is 100GB/

I have also pinaccle tv tuner card, I'm able to save TV programs directly to my PC.

If you want the best capture card try mo Matrox RT5000 (yata). Approx. price U$600-700.

Hope this helps...

pissword,

isang paraan na alam ko. You can convert your songs from cassette tapes (analog) to .wav format first, then from .wav to mp3.

I've tried this before, what you will need is a good soundcard, and wav ---> mp3 converter/encoder software (e.g. nero, or roxio easy cd creator).

Hope this helps....
