Anyway.

I know a lot of you guys are very tech-savvy, so I'm throwing this out there. I have a few VHS tapes I want converted into a digital format. My wife bought me a great little device that was supposed to do it, and it did, right up until it decided my 2004 Golden Bullet Championship match video was copyrighted material and it shut itself off.

I'm wondering how the software decided it was copyrighted when it plowed through a video of Shooting USA just prior with no hiccups.

In any case, is anyone set up to run VHS to digital formats?

Dude, all remnants of civility and decorum have long since faded at this place. I wouldn't worry about clogging up the your momma jokes and conspiracy theories. ;-)

Ike,
no doubt you are special/ However I think more than one was made and I am sure if there is another it is possibly on Ebay :-)

That's just a player. The pictured machine is special. I am special.

Yes you are and don't you let anyone tell you otherwise.

Side note....Redbox or Netflix.

Snowpiercer is the best movie that I have seen in a while. I give it 2 Ike's up

Haven't seen interstellar yet, but +1 to this. Fantastic movie, especially considering it was a low budget independent movie.

Macro vision is a bitch. I'm not sure if it's ok to talk about secrets in dealing with this stuff here. If it is gimme a like Jonas or rumbler and I will share my knowledge.

All the kids who rode the short bus got told that, not just you!

Sure there were more made. But "combo" is not the version. No need to buy one when a ripped DVD is only a fireside chat away.
Very true, not intending to stand on your generosity toes so to speak.

The VHS / DVD burners on Ebay are in the $100 range

And the possibility that people still own VHS tapes isn't a conspiracy?!

There might be one or two floating around, although I was more of a stand-up fighter back in the day!

Although no one thinks of him as the geezer he's becoming, I have one of Razz titled 1997 USPSA Nationals...
