    Capture a vcr tape into my computer
    I love to get this old VCR tape into my computer. I see the vcr machine has audio/video outlet. How can I extract this tape and feed it into my computer.

    I have a digital camera. I guess I
    Need some capturing equipment?

    I would go to a place like Ebay, and type in "tuner card" You will find what you are looking for. You don't have to buy, you will know what's available.

    You need a video capture card. ATI makes some pretty affordable ones that do a decent job. There are others out there but I've used ATI a lot and have generally been very pleased with the results. If you purchase one new you should get the software you need to do what you want.

    I have had no problem with the Dazzle,as it converts analog from your VCR and changes it to a digital format yor computer knows.

    Dazzle seems worth checking out, Pricegrabber.com list $70-$140. Don't know if tuner is important, Not sure if dazzle has tuner.
    Is handy for receiving without external tuner.
