I wonder if someone could be point me in the right direction here. I
have a new PC so plenty of space and CPU power, and I want to to
transfer a few choice clips of analogue video from camcorder to CD or
DVD.
I have a capture facility on the graphics card which seems to work well
enough but I'm not sure what strategy to adopt to end up with the best
quality.
It seems I can a) capture with Windows Moviemaker and transfer to SVCD
or b) capture in avi with VirtualDub, convert to M2V /wav with Tmpgenc,
and author a dvd with something like Ifoedit. As this is a one off
operation, I'd like to stick to freeware if possible.
The Moviemaker option seems the simplest but would I be losing quality
this way?
Any advice welcome.
