I am new to this forum and would greatly appreciate any input on a good external vhs to dvd device. I tried the ADS one and it work for two vhs tapes to dvd and stopped. Returned it to store. Still would like to do this, kind of get turned away when you read some of the reviews of some of the external devices. I am sure there has to be a good one out there. I have a new DELL COMPUTER WITH 2.8GHZ. I have read this is ok for this. Need your imput. THANKS!!

I appreciate the reply, but I just need something for successful transfer of VHS tapes to DVD. Do not need the TV tuner.

If your VHS output is for a TV tuner, wouldn't you need a TV tuner for your Dell to capture?

Oops! You were looking for a stand alone (external) device but, want to utilize your PC? My mistake. Most just use an inexpensive PCI slot TV tuner card. Software's the trick. I settled on 'PowerProducer' (Cyberlink), very user friendly, with capture rates up to 8Mbps but, most tuner hardware is limited to 6Mbps, which is still very good with 1 hour per DVD. This exceeds the resolution on VHS anyway.

Didn't mean to offend by bad habit!! Private message was to PFH for more info concerning his Plextor, which was very helpful. with his success with it, I ordered one today. I do understand the concept of forums, his info is already on one of the lists.
