DVD to web video help needed

9/8/04 | Me

[Roger from TI]

I have a US Army Ranger 1/75 Ranger Regiment Association 30 year reunion DVD that I wish to put on my personal website and the 75thrra.org website.

The problem is that I don't know how to convert it from a DVD to the web and still have a quality video.

Any suggestions?

If this is very difficult task, I'd be willing to pay someone to do this for me, at a reasonable price. Please advise.

Thank You.

FWIW - if you wind up having to buy a video card, try shopping at place that sells used equipment. You can usually get stuff for 1/3 or less than new.
Place I shop sells old modem cards for $5 for example.

Thanks to you, too.

For option one, there are also external boxes that convert your computers VGA signal to a TV signal. AVerMedia QuickPlay is one of them. Another capture software for option two is Easy Video Capture.

Don't know if this helps. But, if you get the video on a VHS tape, MPG file, I can convert it for you!
A very small fee of $2.00 plus shipping. If I can FTP it to you, NO shipping back to you!

I can't believe how helpful everyone has been. Thanks for the advice and offers of help. I know where to look now. I'm gonna see if I can convert it myself.
