Can you suggest any product (both hardware peripheral and software) that can do the following: I want to transfer some of my VHS video tapes to computer, enhance the quality of the film (these are old films that have been originally shot in another format), and then put the film back to tape. I have a 486 based computer with 32 MB RAM, 3D-Studio V3, and bunch of other graphics software. I would appreciate any suggestions.

Thank you for your suggestions. I am not familiar with any of the products you mentioned. Can you tell me a bit about each one of them, their advantages and disadvantages, etc? Regards, Kambiz

Hi Dave, I want to transfer some of my old VHS video tapes to computer. Do a bit of manipulations; and transfer them back to tape. You had mentioned two products: – Personal Smart Video Recorder, and – Digital's PAR & PVR line. I am not familiar with any of these products. I would appreciate it if you could send me more information on these and other relevant products. Thanks, Kambiz

>> I am not familiar with any of these products. I would appreciate it if you could send me more information on these and other relevant products. << may i suggest that you contact your local authorized Autodesk Multimedia dealer. if your local authorized Autodesk Multimedia dealer is unfamiliar (or unable) to provide detailed information on either of these products (or analogous ones)… look for another dealer. 🙂 i could suggest many folks to go to, but i have no wish to get commercial. also, a great multimedia dealership is worth its weight in gold. i will suggest this though… get your hands dirty with stuff you might buy before you by it. also, have a choice. see a few things first. you don't want to rush on a decision this costly. -dave
