I can handle any format -- 3/4", VHS, SVHS, 8mm, or Hi8. No Beta, however. - -- Benjamin L.

On making the dubs - I think I have seen a couple of folks mention working in TV in some manner. We would get far better copies if someone would dub the VHS stuff to a broadcast format master, then make VHS dubs from that. I'd volunteer, but I now work for a network station where I'm not allowed to operate the tape machines which could make the dubs. un abrazo, juan ------------------------------ From: "J.S.

That's not a bad idea. Now someone needs to come forward and volunteer... JSL. ------------------------------ From: "Victor A.

The reason they've had to learn is that all video manufacturers are bootleggers.
