LtCdData Part of this issue is going to revolve around the hardware. In order to capture from VHS you need to have a video-audio input - either in a graphics adaptor or a multimedia card. This can be done in Windows, Linux or on a Mac - but it's hardware specific. Some high-end multimedia adaptors have all of this functionality built into them - some TV cards (BT848 chipset) also have the ability to do this. I used a BT878 card to transpose VHS of equestrian events into AVI - then after getting and editing what I wanted, transposed the resultant avi into an svcd. So, to answer the question simply, yes, this can be done in linux - BUT it's hardware that's required - if you don't already have it. -- Sat Jan 18 08:50:00 EST 2003 8:50am up 1 day, 18:33, 4 users, load average: 0.41, 0.63, 0.44 -- |____ | kuhn media australia| | / ,, /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |=| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen kuhn| | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |/ ._/ || | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]| | |'. `\ | | |icq: 5483808 | | ;/ / | | | | | smk ) /_/| |.---.| | mobile: 0410-728-389| | ' `-`' | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU | -- linux user:267497 * RH 8.0 * PC/Mac/Linux/Networking/Consulting -- QOTD: There may be no excuse for laziness, but I'm sure looking.

Thank you. You can use Cinelerra - for capture and for editing and for saving to disk in AVI format. Then rip it with any of the numerous VCD converters. -- Sat Jan 18 13:05:00 EST 2003 1:05pm up 1 day, 22:48, 4 users, load average: 0.20, 0.38, 0.42 -- |____ | kuhn media australia| | / ,, /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |=| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen kuhn| | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |/ ._/ || | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]| | |'. `\ | | |icq: 5483808 | | ;/ / | | | | | smk ) /_/| |.---.| | mobile: 0410-728-389| | ' `-`' | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU | -- linux user:267497 * RH 8.0 * PC/Mac/Linux/Networking/Consulting -- The cord jumped over and hit the power switch.
