Technical stuff

For best quality, no more than an hour will put onto a DVD as a rule. Although a DVD can hold more video than that, the quality will start to deteriorate beyond that.I normally find an hour and a half at most is more than acceptable.

One of the problems that can occur with transferring old analogue tape to dvd is lip sync. What happens is that the dialogue doesn't match with the video, resulting in an effect similar to watching a foreign film with english dialogue dubbed over the top. To eliminate this, the video that is transferred is first fed through a device that has a Time Based Correcting, which is then fed into the computer.
