kitbag Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Hi guys! Just a quick question! I have got a few home videos of me as a baby and at school plays and other things like that. Do you know where I could get them made into DVDs instead?? They are those little tapes that you used to record onto with the tape recorder! I have a feeling Boots might do it but i'm not sure! Thanks everyone!! Megan xxxxxxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Boots or any photo developing place should do it You can buy/hire machines (either vhs to dvd, or to your computer) if you have a lot to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Just spotted this vhs/dvd to usb Could be worth a try? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitbag Posted May 20, 2010 Author Share Posted May 20, 2010 sorry to be a bit thick, but what exactly is that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 You'd plug your video player into the red, white + yellow phono cables ... and then the other end is a USB, so you'd plug that into your computer. It says it comes with a CD + software to do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitbag Posted May 21, 2010 Author Share Posted May 21, 2010 Oh righty!! That makes more sense now! I will show my dad and see what he says!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurpleTree Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 My cousin has just done some of my gran's videos for her, she bought some leads (probably like the ones Lewis is talking about), and she had some software on her laptop. Played the video in the player, then burnt the DVD on her laptop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ISCA Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 My DVD is a dual VCR/ DVD player/ recorder. It has the ability to copy VCR tapes onto a DVD. Maybe some friends neighbours have one? I am loathe to get rid of my video tapes so I still need a VCR player, old fashioned though it may be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoid Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 Little tapes... Do you mean: Compact Cassette: VHS Tape: DV Tape: (Large, medium or small) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 I think Megan means vhs + dv Fred - they're home videos + putting onto dvd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoid Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 In that case, get a product like the one Lewis posted. Should work fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
