To copy video from VHS to DVD you used to need a special converter. Not any more! Now, there’s
Movavi Video Suite. You can download this simple, powerful Windows software for free and transfer your
old 8mm movies to DVD, as well as any other film type. The only hardware you need is a TV tuner (or a
USB device), a VHS player, and cables to connect these devices to your PC.
Once you have all the necessary equipment, just follow our instructions, and you’ll transfer VHS to DVD in
no time!

Step 1: Install Movavi Video Suite and Open VHS to DVD Recorder
Download Movavi Video Suite and install it
following the on-screen instructions. After
the installation is complete, open the
program – you’ll see the Movavi Video
Suite launcher. Choose Capture from
cameras, VHS, TV in the Video tab. This will
launch the module that lets you capture
output from video cassettes, webcams,
camcorders, and other devices.

Step 2: Turn on the Equipment for VHS Capturing

Use the video and audio cables to connect the VHS player to the TV tuner. Then connect the TV tuner to
your computer. If you’re using a USB device, just plug it in a USB port. Make sure that the computer
recognizes the connected devices

Step 3: Adjust Capture Parameters

In the Movavi video capturing application choose your recording parameters:
Video Capture Device: your device (TV tuner or other equipment)
Audio Capture Device: your sound card or other device for audio capture
Save files to: the folder where you want to save your video

To start converting, click Start Capture in the video

capture application interface. Then play the tape in the
VHS player. When the tape has finished playing,
click Stop Capture. To view the file you’ve just
recorded, click View saved files.

Step 4: Tweak your Video and Burn the File to DVD

When the capture is complete, you can tweak your new file in Movavi Video Editor. To do this, click Edit
Video in the Movavi Video Suite launcher. Once
the Video Editor has opened, click Add Media
Files and choose your newly recorded file. The
video will be added to the Timeline automatically.
Now you can edit the recording: enhance video
quality, split, crop and rotate, add titles or add a
new soundtrack, and much more.

To save the edited file, click Export and choose

an appropriate format in the Save as video tab.
Then click Start to complete the saving process.

You can also burn your video to CD or DVD

right from within Movavi Video Suite. Note
that you’ll have to download and install the
disc-burning app separately from the rest of
the program. To do this, open the Video Suite
launcher, go to the Data tab, choose Burn
disc, and click the Download button.

After the burner app is installed on your

computer, click Burn disc one more time to
launch it. Insert a DVD disc into your computer, and then open the Video tab in upper part
of the interface. Locate the file you want to record on DVD and drag it to the working area of
the program. Then simply click Burn Disc and in a few minutes you’ll have your VHS
converted to DVD.
