VHS to DVD

[charmax]

Does anyone on my flist know of, or have any guides on how I could convert an old vhs tape to dvd? I have looked around quite a bit but can't find anything very helpful. Oh and while I'm asking, are there any specific hardware/software that I would need to do this?

I'm a bit late with the suggestions but I think you have already come to the same conclusion.

We picked up a cheap DVD recorder (about £80) and linked it to the VCR and transferred old tape footage onto a DVD. The man with the 'brains' is out right now but I can get him to tell me which output goes where etc when he get's back. (Sorry I wasn't paying attention). It is simpler solution than using a PC with a capture card I think.

Yep, I've decided it's about time that I upgraded my dvd recorder anyway. I'm having a look round now to see what stores are offering the best deals. Max, my better half, will have no problems setting it all up. Thank you Andrea. :D
