Transfer your VHS tapes to DVD

Step 9:

Burn to DVD

Once you have your audio/video scenes in order, click the Make Movie tab to begin the transfer to disc. The Studio 9.0 software lets you transfer the final cut to your hard drive first, then transfer that copy to DVD. If possible, transfer the VHS source to a second hard drive, or at least to a partition other than drive C: to avoid conflicts with the operating system and the Studio 9.0 software.

After you've burned your DVD, you can play it just about anywhere--but more important, you'll be able to kiss those bulky, last-century videotapes good-bye.
