Chicago Tribune | Copy videotapes to your computer

This is how to save those old VCR tapes.

This reply came from a listener: I think it would be better to use a device that uses hardware encoding to DV rather than software like the VideoAdvantage seems to. The PC Magazine review says the min. 2Mhz requirement may be a little tight. With 3.5 Mhz and no hyperthreading, capture took 70% of system resources. Plextor’s ConvertX PX-M402U hardware encodes to DivX®, MPEG-4, MPEG-2/DVD, MPEG-1/VCD formats. For pure transfer of analog to digital, I'm still leaning toward the Plextor.
