    The video camera outputs need to get into the computer somehow.
    What kind of camera is it, if its VHS it sounds old. Your best bet maybe to buy an inexpensive TV card for your computer,put the tape in a VCR and the VCR into your tuner card.
    Anyone else have better ideas?

    Nope.....thats pretty much it. I know Dazzle used to make a kit that had a A/V interface and came with software to create DVDs and it was about $100 or so. Might be the easiest way, as everything comes in one box.

    DoubleDwn---Thanks for the backup, that was the kit I was thinking of, just couldnt remember the name and didnt have extra time to search at that moment.
    I agree that all in one box could be helpful and easy in this case, but it seems like a 1 time purchase. After I'm are finished transferring that collection to DVD what am I gonna do with that interface now I dont need it? For the same or less price, I have the TV card in my computer I can always use.
    Personal preference I guess.
