V+ recordings transfer to PC?
Hi guys
I have a V+ box and it is the best piece of kit that I have plugged in since my ZX Spectrum! I know that you can transfer recordings to a DVD recorder but can you transfer them to a PC/laptop's hard drive and then burn them to DVD at leisure? As I don't own a DVD recorder I was wondering if a PC can be used and how you would go about it (software, cables etc.).
Cheers for you help!
Baker Boy

Re: V+ recordings transfer to PC?
the only way would be to get a tv input cable for your PC...somewhere like maplin, or pcworld should be able to sort you out.

Re: V+ recordings transfer to PC?
Not just a cable but a whole analogue capture card. If you are looking at a way of transfering the digital data directly from the V+ box to the PC via ethernet or usb then I'm afraid you are out of luck-there is currently no way of doing this.

Re: V+ recordings transfer to PC?
Hi Jem,
A mate of mine has just referred me to this forum, after I posted the same question baker boy posted, on Facebook just 5 mins ago.
Has this changed, seeing as this original post was 3 years ago? Can we now record from v+ to PC?
I do hope so, because like him, I can't afford a DVD Recorder either!
Please update, thanks

Something like this works:

You'll also need a scart adaptor which you can pick up for a couple of quid from ebay.

Re: V+ recordings transfer to PC?
It works fine for me. Did you use the software that came with it?
