Subject: RE: Converting digital files: methods & software
I set up the VHS and copied over a 90 minute tape, saving it on the old computer. The version of DVD Flick over there isn't working now (I think it needs an update or it connects with the mothership to work and that computer isn't on the Internet any more). I set it up in the new computer but decided not to let it keep going overnight so aborted the conversion after 4 hours at 40% complete. That's way longer than I remember it taking in the past. They do offer an "Entertain me" button that gives a rudimentary game of Tetris while you wait if you're not doing something else and letting this run in the background.
