[QUOTE=Fishing Magician;1118713]movie maker is good for software to record... you still need to convert the video out of the HB via a capture device (converts analog to digital)
I do this every day for werk (webcasting, live video capture for DVD, etc)
give this a try
EasyCAP USB 2.0 TV DVD VHS Video Audio AV Capture DC60 - eBay (item 370338491734 end time Apr-21-10 08:32:13 PDT)
About $11 shipped
I bought one of these devices to use with a Sony camcorder when the firewire connection went out on the camera. Never worked for me. I use Ulead video studio and it does not see it. May work for you but would not on my computer (it has vista ultimate on it). Good luck.
Be as smart as you can, but it is always better to be wise than to be smart.
