[Ham-Computers] Re Video Conversion Assistance

[Duane Fischer]

Hi All,

I did not receive any reply, at least none that I am aware of, so I will ask 
again.

As most of you know, I am totally blind. I want to convert some VHS video 
taken live of me when performing over the years into a format suitable to 
record on a DVD. (I am the only totally blind professional 
Magician/Illusionist in this world)

I have a new super computer that has a digital video drive able to record in 
one or two layers. I am wondering how I connect the video and two audio 
leads from the MGA Super VHS recorder to the computer? Do I use the three 
cables with RCA male plugs on the ends? If so, how? There are no female RCA 
jacks on the computer. Or do I use the S-Video cable?

I am sure one of you clever dudes has done this, so please share the ways 
and means to the end with me.

Thank you very much.

Happy New Year to all!
