Convert VHS to DVD? Why?
If you were alive in the 1990s and the early 2000s, chances are you took some VHS videos. You know VHS tapes, the kind you used to be able to rent in video stores.
Ah, memories captured forever on VHS tape.
Wrong!
Those memories about as safe as . . . anybody remember 8-track tape?
That’s right, the VHS player is going out of style.
Magnetic tape? For permanent memories? On a planet with a magnetic field? Ha ha ha, that’s a good one.
Here’s a kit to convert VHS to DVD.
To convert VHS to DVD you are going to need a VHS player or a camcorder that plays VHS tapes.
I would suggest that you take good care of your VHS player if you haven’t yet converted your VHS tapes.
Have you shopped for 8-track tape players lately? That’s right. Maybe if you got lucky at a garage sale. VHS is going the same way that 8-track tape did. The way of the dinosaurs.
So carefully locate your VHS player or camcorder.
Then perform these steps:
- Install the Honestech VHS to DVD software on your computer.
- Hook up your VCR (or camcorder) to the conversion box.
- Connect the VHS to DVD conversion box to your computer via a USB port.
Keep in mind that you are saving your video memories from being trapped on 1990s technology.
What’s that worth? Check the price!
Do you still have VHS tapes lying around? Do you have a plan to keep your video memories alive? Please comment!
Hmmmm, strange. Some of these cheap input devices have terrible audio. Try buying an RCA to 3.5mm cable, then plug the RCA end into the audio plug of the VCR, and the 3.5mm plug into the Line-In socket on your sound card. Just change the audio device in whatever program you’re using from ‘ USB Audio Interface’ to whatever your sound card is.
Nice kit and it seems easy to convert vhs tapes with this kit. I recently went to a shop near my home to convert my vhs tapes to dvd

Guppu, there are folks who have entire libraries of movies on VHS tapes. Converting them to disc also extends their lives. Magnetic tape gradually degrades in the Earth’s magnetic field.

You are a savior! I was looking for something like this. I have about 300 VHS tapes sitting around and was thinking about transferring them. I am going to give this a try. Thanks for the info!!!

Glad to be of help, Matt. A few years back I went through a huge rigamarole converting SONY camcorder home movies to disc using their expensive VHS -> DVD device I had to buy when their SONY camcorder crapped out.
