Late last summer my pastor at my church asked me to setup a Dvd burner theory for the recorded services. I idea sure this is easy enough, but there was one kicker, he also wanted to be able to replacement old Vhs recordings of services as well to Dvd.
In the past this meant having to install a capture card with Rca, or component, inputs into the computer and using software that would capture and re-encode the video to Dvd format. It was a real pain and took some hours to accomplish. Today things are much easier. We now have external hardware devices that will not only do the capturing but also do the conversion on the fly as its streaming to your computer.

The expedient we settled on was Ads Technologies Dvd Xpress Dx2. This expedient has Rca component inputs as well as S-Video. It connects to the Pc via a Usb port and is detected by Windows Xp as a capturing device. The software drivers are easy to install and the expedient loads the drivers without problems.
Now here is the sweet part about the Ads Dvd Xpress Dx2 the software suite it comes with integrates with Ulead Dvd Movie facility which is included with the software package. So instead of being a 2 step process of capturing and then burning to Dvd it can now be done directly in one fell swoop.
Of course the captured video can be saved to the Pc's hard drive for later manipulation and transferring to other devices such as the Sony Psp or the Apple Ipod Video. The software that comes with the expedient will record directly to Dvd (Mpeg-2), Svcd, Vcd (Mpeg-1), Mpeg-4, & DivX as well as the Psp and Ipod formats.
I highly propose this expedient to whatever who wishes to replacement their old Vhs tapes to Dvd and to whatever who wants to create their own video for the Psp and Ipod. This theory of transferring video is the absolute easiest I've found. Our church loves it because with just a few clicks of the mouse even a computer novice is burning Dvds now.
