I have a Sony D8 camcorder that can read an 8mm analog tape and then Firewire it to my PC. It creates an AVI file that can be converted to MPEG2 and put on a DVD. Does this help?

I brought my camcorder to SHARE for the VM birthday and induction of new Knights. But I do not have, and have not been able to arrange, conversion of this to DVD or VCD. I am sure that many VMers would like to have a copy. But I need help. Now ... the one A-to-D converter I might borrow will do S-video, and I'm sure that comes out great, but my camcorder only supports NTSC output, which when run through the convertor looks terribly grainy. Is there some kind soul who has 8mm video playback and the means to convert it to decent resolution digital? If you cannot burn a DVD, I could handle that part. Lemme know. Thanks! -- R;
