So I am going to transfer some old VHS tapes to DVD, and I want to know what the best software for capturing and encoding is. I was going to just use Nero, is this sufficient.

The best cost a lot money & additional hardware. If you want free you should try VIRTUALDUB.

I was having a lot of trouble with audio sync, until I switched the audio sample rate to its highest possible setting (48 kHz I think) and then it synced up perfectly.

I used VirtualVCR. I also tried with VirtualDub, but I had the same problems. If I remember right you can resync the audio in VirtualDub, but it is a pain figuring out the right ratio. VirtualVCR will output the number of samples recorded and you can work out the ratios from that. I was still off by a fraction of a second after 2 hours.hibner said:

After fighting with Nero I played with Virtualdub a little last night, not a real user friendly program is it. I took me an hour just to figure out the settings. Excuse my newbness. This is the first time I have attempted to capture before. I am suprising my wife for christmas by putting some old home movies on DVD. Just like everything though, I thought it would be easier.
Thanks for the help Sonny and mccoyn.

i like to use Beyond TV 3
it is cool, as for free, if u got Windows Xp, then you can use the Movie maker, it doesnt have much but its free and embedded.
