My solution:

New Camcorder will make this easier than a new computer.

I have a Sony Digital 8. ($750) works great.

VCR (any) RCA out to Camcorder - Fire Wire (Card and Cable $30) in to Dell PIII 1Gig. running Ulead Video Studio ($70) burning to CDRW (as mpeg or VCD). I don't have a DVD-R so have not been able to try Uleads DVD writing but the VCDs work great.

Very Simple. Great Results.

I have a digital Sony now, but what I really want to convert is older video with people who are now deceased.

Will your Camcorder record from VCR source material that has macrovision encoding? I heard from someone that it would not record anything like movie clips from rented or purchased movies.
