Jizus, for the prices of 2 discs from you I could buy a DVD-R drive and do
it myself.

DVD-R disc = 7.99, you are charging £290???
That is one hell of a mark up.

Any one want a tape or record transferring to CD?

I'll do it for £100 :-)

Hell, I would go and buy a DVD-R drive if somebody were to pay me £100 to
make a disc

I agree. I want to copy my Lion King laserdisc to DVD but am looking
at a way of doing it on the cheap. I need someone who has a DVD
recorder that can take NTSC S-Video in.

I'm almost there, I have a laserdisc player (CLD-D925 & a DVL-909) and a
video capture card with NTSC S-Video in and all the DVD encoding and
authoring software.
I also have some VOB trailers that I would like burnt on to DVD, but
Just no DVD-R drive. (yet)

So why post it to a "HOME" cinema newsgroup?

Component capture? VHS is a composite format?
What VHS machine are you using that has component output?
"Want your home video on a DVD disk ?" Doesn't sound like professional to me

Yes you did "Want your home video on a DVD disk ? I can digitise it using

professional real-time encoder and transfer it to a DVD"

What other analogue home video formats are out here that people still use?
(Apart from Laserdisc, which isn't recordable)
DV is digital and so wouldn't need to be "Digitised".

Any way this is a Home Cinema newsgroup

I didn't know that they used component video? Or were widely used for home
video recording?

I was answering about the claims that Very Horrible System was the only
analogue format.

I think ED Beta recorded in Component
