I used to use an analog to digital conversion box from Pinnacle to convert VHS tapes to DVD, but the device was horrible at dropping frames. I would have to go back with software (I used Vegas) to delete either audio or video frames to keep them in sync... a painful job! Since I got the JVC DR-M10S dvd recorder, I just plug the VCR or the analog camcorder directly into the dvd recorder to capture it to DVD, and edit it on the PC with Womble's MPEG Video Wizard. You can pay big bucks for an analog to digital converter (e.g. Canopus ADVC100) but for the same money why not get a dvd recorder that also records shows off TV?
