Re: Re[2]: [Biofuel] BioDiesel on Spike TeeVee Trucks show
Hi Gustl, You're quite right.The easiest way of making a DVD is to connect my VCR to a DVD recorder. Unfortunately, I don't have a DVD recorder. I do have an ADS Pyro Link that I can connect to the video output ofmyVCR, to my computer via a firewire port. I have Nero software that will allow me to make an .avi of what I'm inputting, then it converts the .avi toDVD format. Then Isimply use the computer's burner to make the DVD.As I mentioned, I've only had thechance to try it once, but I had trouble with dropped frames. My computer has been upgraded since then, butmaking the time to tinker has been almost impossible.I have "too many irons in the fire" as it were.
