Wish they'd sold one of these a couple years ago! I transfered all my old VHS tapes using a PC-DVR TV card. Luckily, I didn't have any HD stuff to deal with then. Had to throw out 4 VHS decks over the last 9 months, though, because I can't find anybody who wants them even if they're FREE!
Also gave away nearly 400 tapes, and trashed another 300 just two ago. VHS is a dead duck... Hmm ... Wal-Mart still sells new, Spanish language VHS titles |

Gotta sit there and wait for the whole thing to record and no room on my desk so have to do it elsewhere. I hope by the end of the year | | | Thank You, Eric Vogel |

| Posted: | | | | I just don't understand why someone would spend so much time and expense to tranfer a movie on VHS to DVD when they could purchase the DVD outright and chuck the tape . Granted, for films on VHS that may never see the light of day on DVD...maybe. | | | My WebGenDVD online Collection |

| Posted: | | | | I'm not transferring comercial VHS to dvd, the time it takes! Have better things to do and it is not healthy for my CPU, hours running at 100%, the cooling fans are constant at 100%, have additional 3 fans in this tower and hard disc coolers to keep things running (should start thinking of a new system it gets dated, P4 530) | | | Sources for one or more of the changes and/or additions were not submitted.

| Posted: | | | | My system is overworked too with four drives (RAID), two vid cards (almost always running the Folding@Home GPU version), etc. I'm experimenting with a waterblock for the quad-core CPU and so far I'm pretty impressed. I'm already planning on going to a fully water-cooled system sometime soon with at least three tanks to dedicate cooling for the drives, 2-3 video cards, and the CPU.
It's turned into a room heater. I can put my hand behind my desk and feel the heat wafting up. |

| Posted: | | | | I have have some VHS-tapes (some recorded from TV, others are commecials), but some are not worthy to have on DVD and other it a waste have a doubble movie's on VHS a well on DVD. I would not know if someone, other than me , that thinks that way. There are other software who does the save as DVD profiler that can also at VHS tape, but they are not as good as DVD profiler . That is why, I think, that would be a great asset if it was possible in DVD profiler to add a VHS tape. Greatings, Makemp | | | Last edited: by makemp1997 |

| Posted: | | | | You can already as described previously. It's called creating a manual profile. Alternately, if there is a DVD version of your VHS tape, you can download it and then update it with your own cover scan/details. |

| Posted: | | | | I have still very few VHS (only movies that are not yet on DVD). For them, I use the Edition field with VHS. Simple...
In fact dvdprofiler should have been called mymoviesprofiler, as it is a smart program to collect movies (DVD, Blu-ray, but even Laserdisc and VHS), but very poor to collect data DVD, for example... | | | Images from movies |
