Hello folks, I am a brand new member. I bought SonyRDR-VX530 to transfer VHS tapes to DVD and to record off the air sports events. My father has dementia and has a very difficult time staying alert all the way through a basketball game. I was going to record the game and import it into Adobe Premiere Elements 3.0 and edit out the commercials and halftime. That way he could more likely watch the game through.

Problem is that the DVD crashes Premeiere Elements... every time regardless of what speed it is recorded at originally. After spending 4 hours on the phone with Adobe we determined that Sony is using a proprietary codec that is incompatable with elements. The suggested that I get a ripping program and convert it before taking the video into Premiere Elements. I am totally unfamiliar with ripping... and would rather take the resorder back to Best Buy and get one with the same functions that will be compatable from the get-go.

Can anyone help me with this? It has been suggested by a sales person that the Panasonic DMR-ES35VS is just such a machine. I asked if he would guarantee that and he wouldn't.

If I end up ripping, what softwear should I use I have Nero Express 6 (OEM) but have never used it. Is that process time consuming?

Thanks in advance for any help.

you import your VHS to your computer using a video capture program ..... then you can use the programs' editiing feature to take out the commercials.........then burn to DVD! that's all you need to do.

If you just editing the captured MPEG2 file then a free program called Cuttermaran will do this. The only drawback is that you have to De-multiplex, edit the video and then multiplex the video after the editing is done.
