[Gllug] VCR to computer transfer

[Steve Cobrin]

Hi, perhaps slightly off topic but, thought somebody here might be able to 
help :-)

I have some PAL format video's [which were copied from some original 8mm 
movie stock] which I need to edit, and transfer onto computer and then burnt 
onto CD. I only need to copy the video track, there's no audio to worry about.

1) Is it possible to burn CD's which will play on a DVD player in the US?
2) What's the best way to copy from VCR to computer?

This is not going to be a frequent event, I really only have these two videos 
to copy.

Is there any difference between a USB based capture card and a PCI based 
card? USB would be siginificantly more convenient for me, but I don't want to 
lose too much picture quality.

any suggestions?

	-- Steve
