VHS to DVD

[ohsteve]

Hi guys, I am not much of a vintage video fan as I am a audiophile, but my question which I am not sure where to put is ...does any one know how to record old vhs tapes to dvd format. I can burn both DVD and bluray but I can't figure out how to get the video signal over to my computer. I have tried the Roxio vhs to dvd capture thing, and the Easy CAP capture thing but can't get either of them to work. It seems that in todays hi tech world that someone somewhere has made a simple adaptor to go from the audio/video out of Vhs machine to a usb input. But if so I have not heard of it. I would love to be able to rerecord all my Vhs movies onto DVD or bluray platform.
Thanks for any help given.
Steve
