Happy Face 29 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I used to have an Archos 605 which you could plug video cables into and record to a data file. It was mint for that. Got all my old home vids done before it gave up on me. Dunno if the current models still allow it. Might be an expensive and outdated solution to a problem I don't need to resolve in this more modern age of WIFI TV's that record to internal hard discs.

It should have a vdeo out on it. Then you just need to plug that cable into something capable of recording the video signal to a data file.

Gemmill 44993 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 CT you can probably just pay someone to do this. An independent camera shop or something. Be much easier, assuming it hasn't got you skullfucking the missus on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like I need to either load up XP or something like that or try and buy a go between of some sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, I would rather sit in the taxi and earn the money to pay someone to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was going to be an ongoing thing I would. £98 to get 14 tapes transferred is a fabulous deal imo. Not only would I have to buy kit but Im also geussing it would be a long job, a steep learning curve, lots of disk space and burning DVD's etc This way I just need to sit in the cab, do some jobs, watch some TV and the jobs done.
