I need to transfer approximately 950 hours of shows that are currently recorded on VHS tapes. I am looking for recommendations on what the best setup I should get.
I am interested in knowing your thoughts and ideas as to:
What type of computer (PC/Mac)?
Suggest specs. on the computer I should use?
Should I save to External or internal hard drives and what size drives?
What video capture cards are the best? Internal or External?
And definitely what editing software is the best for my task?
Each tape has about 6 hours (SLP speed) recorded on it. I want to be able to just transfer one tape and walk away, and then go back and cut up the 6 hrs worth of material into folders.
I will be using a S-VHS VCR for playback via the S-Video input. Obviously I want to save these in the best quality possible. I understand the source is analog but any help/advice in restoring to the best quality is appreciated!
I thank you in advance for your recommendations and help!
