RE: Converting Hi-8 Tapes to Digital, and Then Editing Them

Hey Belyin, thanks for the thoughtful and informative reply!

However, what I need to know is how to handle the video aspect of my Hi-8 tapes. I have the audio side covered (I use SoundForge, and occasionally Cubase). I want to copy my tapes to a hard drive, and then chop out the stuff I don't want. Hi-8 is becoming ancient, so I'd like to get this done before my camcorder (Sony TR-700) craps out.

Looking at my PC's motherboard features, it doesn't appear to have an analog composite "video in", so apparently I need to start there... get a card - and maybe the card will come with the software I need.

Hey, since you're apparently in New Orleans, do you by chance know the jazz pianist Jeff Lashway, or trumpet guy Henry?

Thanks again!

:)
