absolutely not...that's controlled by the dvd authoring. there are many ways to get this done. i converted dozens of vhs tapes of my child growing up. took a long time, but was worth it. you will need some computer skilz to pull it off, but it's not rocket science.
the best method is to get the vhs footage onto your computer. again, lot's of ways to pull this off. if you have a video out on your tv, then it's easy. play the vhs out into a dv camcorder. then, import it into yer pc and author a dvd, complete with chapter screens, etc,. real easy on a mac...dunno about windows.
I have 3 or 4 VHS tapes that I need to get on DVD, and I don't have a VHS player, and I'm on Mac.
Would it be worth it to buy "something" and do it myself, or - I've seen signs when driving around for shops that say they will convert tapes to DVDs. That might be the easiest?
be
brian-are they full 2-4 hours vhs tapes? if so, it'll take more than 1 dvd. either way, you gotta get them digital-on yer mac, before you can create a dvd. send 'em to me and i'll take care of it.
