How Do You Transfer Protected VHS To DVD?
With the emergence of higher-quality DVD technology, the VHS format for videos has become obsolete. VHS is a less concise method of video playback and is more prone to breakdown from overuse. One form of VHS tapes have technology designed to prevent the video from being copied. If you don’t wish to purchase a digital copy of a protected VHS or if it cannot be found, you can transfer the VHS to DVD with the use of a capture card. Connect the capture card to your hard drive, either by inserting it into an available PCI slot at the back of your computer or by using a USB cord for an external card. Install the accompanying software to your computer. Since you will be recording the VHS tapes onto your hard drive in AVI format, configure the capture card to a high-quality setting (720×480). In order to bypass Macrovision’s analog copy protection, you must use a video stabilizer or a video enhancer. This will filter out the Macrovision and allow you to record video from a protected VHS tape.
