I am in the process of learning how to make football highlight videos. I purchased a hard drive camcorder and software to get started. I am comfortable with what I am doing so far when I am transferring from the hard drive to the editing software and going from there. My question is this. How do I transfer VHS tapes that I receive from coaches and possibly DVD game tapes into my software. I tried hooking my connector cables up to my VCR and tried copying to my camcorder, but I am obviously not doing something right. I am new at this, but very interested so I would appreciate any help you guys could provide. Thank You.
what type of file format do you need to load into the editing software ie. avi mpg etc. once we know that we can be of more help
