Default VHS - DVD and Tv tuner?

Hi,

Does anybody know of a product that can be used to capture my VHS tapes , edit them and output the finished edit to DVD, but also is a TV tuner too!

Ive looked at some of the pinnacle prodects, but cant see one that allows both.



any tips would be great,

thanks

It depends how sophisticated you want to be - but when I was capturing my VHS tapes, and had hooked up the VCR to the PC, I suddenly realised that I could use the tuner in the VCR to watch TV in Premiere's capture window... I imagine you're looking for something more sophisticated, though. :lol:

pick up an ati or huappuage tv tuner ($50-100). I'm currently borrowing a haup. wintv 2000 to capture video from an analog camcorder, so the same could be done with a vcr. but IMO, I'd use the composite connection to tranfer instead of coax, you should get better quality. but if you use pinnacle studio 9 software, BE SURE to update to the latest ver. 9.4.3 release
