How Do You Convert HI 8 Video To DVD?
The Hi 8 format was a further refinement of 8 mm videotape formats introduced in the late 1980s. As an analog format that used magnetic tape to record the video signal, these tapes become worn with age and use. Archiving the tapes to a DVD format will insure family memories will be preserved for years to come. You can use a computer TV tuner to convert your Hi 8 video tapes to digital files that can be recorded as DVDs. Connect the TV tuner to your computer’s USB port.
