National Championship DVD's

[ucbart]

I need some help! I'm trying to get my hands on all 8 of our NC games on DVD. I've recorded them all on DVR at one time or another, but I have no way to get them on DVD....which causes a problem when I have to get a new cable box. I will pay if anyone could help me out. If they're in HD, even better.

I just paid $200 for a Toshiba VCR and DVD recorder Best Buy I think. I am not a techie, but if this machine is something that could help make the recordings happen- I would be happy to drop it off to someone smarter than I and also would be willing to kick in for efforts to accomplish this. I have some old championships on vcr and hope to do the same thing!

this is what i use..

this in conjunction with its software transfers video directly from the DVR onto your hard drive as an mpg file. if you have even a cheap version of some DVD editing software you can then edit this file (removing commercials, possibly adding transitions, menus, etc) then burn the final DVD using the internal CD/DVD burner on your PC.
the advantage to using the PVR is it can transfer HD video if you happened to record it in HD using the right video cable (mine is RWGBR which i think is component). the video above uses composite video (RWY) which in my experience doesn't transfer HD in as good a quality or format (letterboxes it) as component. of course if you don't care about the bells and whistles, the procedure in the video will work just fine (crude menus are added and the DVD it burns is your final product).

If it's a TIVO, I can point you to free software that will xfer the HD videos to your computer.
You can burn them from there.
