Flytyer Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Anyone know of anyone that transfers video to disc that is readable by computer for the purpose of extracting still images for the video footage. We have a client that requires the use of such a service but this is not our area of expertise or knowledge. Any help greatly appreciated.

cheeler Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 What is the video source (tape, DVD) or is it already on the computer? Any basic video editing software (or some playback software) should be able to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it is VHS....the client has the software to extract stills from the video as long as it's readable on a computer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheeler Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 If they are comfortable with computers though, a cheap Hauppage add in card will allow them to record it themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
