And now I have a 64-bit Vista computer, and i installed the SUPER converter but now it stops after converting about 3-4 videos. What is the difference between 32 and 64-bit computers, what does it mean exaclty?....and if u know, why doesn't the SUPER converte function preperly...Is there something I can do?</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/archiving-vhs-to-mini-dv#post-33728 Fri, 16 Nov 2007 11:45:15 +0000 giantonion 33728@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I just recently purchased the Sony DCR HC 48 Handycam... after scouring Apple's iMovie discussion boards, it appears as though I will NOT be able to transfer VHS footage digitally using this camcorder as a pass through.  This is definitely a problem for me, as I was hoping to archive many VHS tapes to mini-dv.  The emphasis is to archive to mini-dv as opposed to importing all vhs footage directly into iMovie, which could ultimately tie up my internal hard drive (I would like to go through the tapes and edit them at a later date).</p> <p>&lt;p class="gmail_quote"&gt;</p> <p>If I buy an analog to digital converter, do you know if I can somehow transfer the vhs to a mini-dv cassette with this approach?  Again, I would prefer not to directly copy footage into the computer.  What about investing in a vcr/mini-dv unit such as the one linked below?  It appears as though they are no longer manufacturing these but, given my situation, and the number of tapes I am hoping to archive (and eventually edit), it may be a wise purchase.</p> <p><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/JVC-SR-VS30U-Mini-DV-S-VHS-VCR_W0QQitemZ110189573382QQihZ001QQcategoryZ3318QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/JVC-SR&#038;lt;wbr&#038;gt;&#038;lt;/wbr&#038;gt;-VS30U-Mini-DV-S-VHS-VCR&#038;lt;wbr&#038;gt;&#038;lt;/wbr&#038;gt;_W0QQitemZ110189573382QQihZ001Q&#038;lt;wbr&#038;gt;&#038;lt;/wbr&#038;gt;QcategoryZ3318QQssPageNameZWDVW&#038;lt;wbr&#038;gt;&#038;lt;/wbr&#038;gt;QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/JVC-SR&#038;lt;wbr&#038;gt;&#038;lt;/wbr&#038;gt;-VS30U-Mini-DV-S-VHS-VCR&#038;lt;wbr&#038;gt;&#038;lt;/wbr&#038;gt;_W0QQitemZ110189573382QQihZ001Q&#038;lt;wbr&#038;gt;&#038;lt;/wbr&#038;gt;QcategoryZ3318QQssPageNameZWDVW&#038;lt;wbr&#038;gt;&#038;lt;/wbr&#038;gt;QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem</a> </a></p> <p>Please write when you have a moment.  Thank you in advance for your assistance... much appreciated!!!</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Joe</p>
