If you are interested in converting your home movie video to DVD, there are a few ways in which you can do this. Before you get started you should know that a DVD can greatly magnify any flaws that may have been found in the original VHS video. Nevertheless, here are some of the ways in which you can do this yourself:
- Use an analog-to-DV converter to add the VHS to a computer video editing program. Then encode it to MPEG-2.
- Use hardware to capture the video to the computer as MPEG-2. This will then convert your VHS to MPEG-2.
- You can connect your VCR or camcorder to a standalone DVD player. This will give you a real time copy of your tape in DVD format.
If you are interested in getting the best quality DVD copy possible, here are some tips:
- Make sure that you clean the tape heads on your VCR before you get started.
- Turn the sharpness control down so that you will get a softer image with less noise.
You should know that compressed audio will fit better than uncompressed audio will on your DVD. If you choose to convert your analog video to DV before converting it to DVD you need to realize that this can take up 14 gigabytes per hour. This will never fit onto a 4.7GB DVD. So, you will have to compress it to a much smaller size.
Another option is to use a program like Movavi Video Suite, which is designed to make it easy to convert home movies to DVD video format. This program will allow you to capture video from your digital or web camera and then convert it so that it will work on any mobile device that you own. The software costs $59.99 and lets you:
- Split and merge your video files
- Add filters and special effects to any of the video files that you own
- Rip, backup and copy your DVDs
- Burn data, audio and video CDs
- Create your very own, very classy video postcards
If you do not want to do this alone, you can have a specialty company dub your VHS home movies to DVD format for you. Because of their experience, most will do a better job than you can do with your own video. This downside is that they are going to be more expensive too.
