My latest project
Now I have "almost" retired at 74 I am now able to look at some long awaiting projects, one is to get rid of thousands of feet of old cine film, 10 or more Hi 8 video tapes and god knows how many VHS/VHSC tapes, but of course before I ditch them they need to be copied to digital format, so this is what I will be doing over the next few weeks/months, I will have all the kit needed in the next few days so watch this space, Rick

Only of boring old family holidays, but I am seen briefly driving a 1937 SS Jag around the camp site, Rick

If I continue to have issues with the DVD system I might well go that route, Rick

DVD in my opinion is unreliable crap, so ordered a USB capture device in order to see if this is any better, Rick

Glad I delayed ordering the capture device as my Hi8 camera and leads arrived today and a capture device is included it is a ClimaxDigital and works well, Rick
