video to dvd

[fulci1971]

hi there i was wondering if anyone could give me some in fo about copying video to dvd,i am thinking of getting a dvd recorder and have alot of videos that i would like to copy onto this format,is it just a case of connecting the 2 using a scart cable,like if you connect 2 video recorders together,or is it more technical,i know all about macrovision but i have a machine that wipes out this problem,so any help would be great cheers alan

"have alot of videos"

What is/are the format/s of these videos?

[fulci1971]

i have roughly 150 originals and tones of copies,all of them or pal format,am i better buying a video convertor to convert them to dvd

When I asked about "format", I was referring to .AVI (DivX-compressed or otherwise), MPEG1, MPEG1 VideoCD, MPEG2, MPEG2 SuperVideoCD, .MOV, etc...

Assuming VHS, because the OP says, "it just a case of connecting the 2 using a scart cable"...
Just connect them.
If you're aware of macrovision, you'll have to get some sort of tbc or video processor to go between the two.
