Here is my situation…
I am trying to save my old “Hi-8” tapes to DVD and I am having issues.
I have multiple 1 and 2 hour Hi-8 tapes that I am running from my Sharp View Cam…through a Dazzle unit (Pinnacle DVC100 Rev:1.1…purchased as a refurb)…onto my Toshiba Laptop (Satellite A105…purchased from Costo a few years back). All of the video files seem fine…but when I copy them to a DVD there is usually occassional frame freezing during playback…it gets progressively worse towards the end of the video…and worse on the longer videos vs shorter.
As a result I am trying to parse the video files from a 2 hour video on to 3 DVDs…thus placing less video on each DVD with hopes of the freeze frames being eliminiated.
I am using NeroVisionExpress 3.0.1.34 to create the video with menus and chapters. My video has the following files:
VIDEO_TS.BUP
VIDEO_TS.IFO
VIDEO_TS.VOB
VIDEO_01_0.BUP
VIDEO_01_0.IFO
VIDEO_01_1.VOB
thru
VIDEO_01_8.VOB
Fot the first DVD I copied:
VIDEO_01_1.VOB
VIDEO_01_2.VOB
VIDEO_01_3.VOB
and it seemed to work ok.
For the second DVD I copied:
VIDEO_01_4.VOB
VIDEO_01_5.VOB
and I cant see anything…no image…no nothing…
I know I messing up something, but I am very unfamiliar with video files and such. Any asisstance would be greatly appreciated…
